Default Advice on suspension for my WRX daily drive

After 34k miles the shocks at the back of my hawkeye wrx are on their way out. I've been doing a bit of research and I've seen these Suspension : Subaru Impreza BC Coilover Suspension BC Racing

I am fairly local to them so I'm tempted to have them fit and set up the car for me but I've not been there before are they ok? Also I've never really heard of these shocks before, I see they sponsor this board so I assume they are ok.

As my car is my daily drive covering around 250 miles a week it needs to be comfortable so will these shocks be ok? I don't want the car to be rock hard, I like it to be firm but I've got my weekend car for removing my fillings.

Or am I barking up the wrong tree and something else would be better? There's nothing wrong with the current setup apart from it failing, I would replace like for like but I know it's only a matter of time before I'll have to replace them again so I want to do this properly and eliminate this issue.

Any help and advice would be great, thanks everyone.

There are now lots of people running these on here due to the great Group Buy rates. I have the 6/5s on my 2002 WRX and I'm more than happy with the ride, you could even go for softer springs, there is probably somebody local to you with them fitted you could go for a r ide with.
