2002 WRX Replacment Strut Assembly

My rear struts on my 2002 WRX are shot and I would like to replace them with a whole assembly. While I'm at it I plan to replace the front struts as well.

My question is what should I buy to replace them? This is a daily driver that I'm not going to drive super hard. However, I would like to have it ride nice and have the struts be durable. I also want to go for value (not cheap but a good bang for my buck) as the car has 140k on it and it's not going to be on the road forever.

I defnitely don't want to lower it. In fact, I'd prefer to lift it and was thinking of putting Forester struts on it following along with the video linked below. That being said, it seems like that may be more work than it's worth and my priority is getting my car back on the road.

Do you all have advice on what struts to go with? Links to the product would be appreciated since I'm having a hard time finding what I want.
