Yes, I think that www.shox.com has the Bilstein touring for your car and it's better and cheaper than OEM. For a diagram, check out:

You should consider changing your strut/shock mounts as well as the front spring seats depending on mileage as well as your swaybar end links. I would personally replace these with heavy duty ones. These can be bought from www.ipdusa.com Other than that, check your ball joints to make sure they aren't bad either.
