I have a 99 9-5SE with 108,300 miles. The front shocks are original and appear to be in good shape as well as handling well. The rears were replaced early on since I pull a 2,000 lb trailer with the car. Bilstein HDs were chosen for this replacement since I wanted the response that they provide. According to my SAAB Master Tech, if SAAB shocks are not leaking they should be OK. Some have experience leaks with rear shocks but I have not heard of problems with front shocks.
