Default Performance Shock Options for Handling

I was just curious what shocks some of you guys run. I drive my truck like I stole it but take very good care of it.

Right now I have the Edelbrock performer IAS shocks and loved them, but they have 100k miles on them now and it's time for new ones. The truck handles like it's on rails with these shocks. Unfortunately QA1 bought out the Edelbrock shock line and I didn't see anything on their website for a 2000 Silverado. I've ran bilstein's before and wasn't as impressed as I was with these Edelbrocks.

Anyone have any other great choices? I hope this hasn't been asked 1millionx

I have bilstein HR on the front and they are good, didn't like the rear bilstein shocks. The best shock I've found to run on the rear are OEM rear shocks for a 03-06 Z71 Tahoe.
