They will fit if they are for your car.

FYI Your struts will wear out faster though. Good luck.

KYB AGX or Koni inserts. Your choice. They both have lifetime warranties. The only thing is that the KYB warranty is more picky.

You can get a full coilover set-up if you want. There are entry-level set-ups that aren't too pricey. The Helix, which aren't too rough, ran about $800-$900 installed from a local vendor. BC's and Megan's will run you sub $1000. It really depends what you are looking for. If you want that extra adjustability, height and camber, go with the coilover set-up. If you just want something to daily drive on, shocks and springs. Pretty much, if you are willing to pay for camber plates and want the adjustability of height, do coilover, if not, stick with shocks and springs.
