For all around use Bilstein's work for many, did for me. Koni's are another good choice.

Those also came on the 96 and 97 WS.6. If your going to also upgrade your springs you'd need something better.

BTW, the 4th gen does not have any struts, just shocks.

Re: looking for struts + shocks

I bought my Bilstein HD shocks from www.stranoparts.com for about $330 if I remember correctly. I installed them myself. With stock springs, it's a great improvement. One word of advice, if you are ever planning on changing springs, now is the time to do it, since you have to take the springs off the front to get the shocks out anyways, and it's a decent amount of work.
