Default Lowered Sixxer Struts?

Ive been thinking a bit in the future again and i know im gunna get new shocks/struts soon, so i read a bit about em. Supposedly you can buy foxbody shocks and throw them on my model of car because they are already 1" shorter, they maintain a smoother and better ride height. However if i hear from you guys to stick with my year, ill probably do so. Info?

I believe that I covered this pretty thoroughly in the suspension sticky.

Yes, lowered sn95's should use Foxbody struts and SN95 shocks. They'll last longer and work better since the fox struts are not so deep into their operating range at ride height among other things.

I read it, and im not sure still which are best for me. Im looking for some that are really comfy for street, absorb allot of impact. But i dont want them to be so soft that performance wise, stocks are better. I probably would end up liking adjustables more, even though yea they are around 100$ more on avg.
