Would this be a good choice for replacing my front shocks ?

What shocks are you running in the rear?

Unless you are going with a crazy high end setup Konis or Bilstein are pretty much the only viable option in my opinion (stay away from KYBs)

I would match the fronts to whatever you are running in the rear. Bilsteins in the rear have more adjustability as far as spring perch height, not as much of an issue if you are running stock springs or a full coil over setup but may be needed depending on what springs you are running otherwise your car winds up looking like its on stilts.
