Default Monroe shoks good for cossie ???

i had seen budgets shocks for cosworth manufacter by MONROE ....

the reference is 16150 for front and 43060 for rear ...

near 200 the four dampers ....

do you think that it's a good idea for a car (sierra cos 4*4) used everyday ? or does i need to see for updrated shocks like koni or bilstein ?

personally i'd go for Koni adjustable shocks with Ahmed 15mm lowering springs - a very very good set up
