Default shocksandstruts

I have a 1989 mustang gt convertible. I am going to replace my front struts and rear shocks. Does anyone know what brand or type I should get? I want the best. My car is not a drag car, but I like to pretend it is sometimes. I just want my car to ride smooth and handle any bumps.

Thanx.

agreed.
then when u are at the track you can set it for fast launches, and on the street you can set it to handle like its on rails.
