Default shock decision...plz help!

ok so im going to be lowering my box via tein s techs in about a month...
My box has about 32k miles so im gonna go ahead and replace the shocks as well! My questions is should i replace all four (front and back) or just the front. Because ive heard of people just replacing the fronts when lowering there xbs. And also whats a good shock for price wise. Many people like the monroe sensatracs but are there any other quality brands out there that are cheaper price wise than the monroes?

Thanx for all the help in advance!

KYB GR-2 .. 200 bucks for all 4 corners.

if you don't want monroes.
monroes will cost you about the same.

I would prefer the koni yellows but they are pricey, because they are adjustable.

KYB makes the stock shocks also....I run the Koni's in the rear and have run stock and Monroe's and the Koni's are the best by far and they are adjustable I also run the Progress in the front
