What shocks and struts for a '94Z28?

I want to put new shocks and struts on my car, along with lower it with Eibach Pro Kit springs. My question is what kind of shocks and struts should I get? I don't want the car to ride like a skateboard though, because it is my everyday car. I was leaning towards the Bilsteins that SLP sells, does anyone have any experience with these? Ride quality? I had KYBs before and they rode really hard in my opinion, but I see they make adjustable ones now so I don't know if they'd be any better. Thanks in advance for any help.

FYI, You don't have struts on a 94. Shocks and shocks.

KYB adjustables are not regarded as very good.

Stranoparts.com, Sam Strano Jr. Is one of your best sources for parts and info.

You may need revalved Bilstein to match the springs or Koni SA, hae the general impression the SLP may not work well with those springs but for details you need to talk to someone who knows more than me.

Good Luck,
