Shock and spring matching question

I'm wanting to replace worn out shocks and possible sagging springs on a Trans Am (~130K mi), and I was looking at the KYB GR-2 (#236001 fronts and #343211 rears) shocks and Moog springs (#5664 front and #5665 rear). Are these shocks and springs a good match? The car doesn't need anything better than stock, so no Bilstein's or Koni's... just some good factory replacements. Also, should I get new spring isolators as well?

Thanks.

good to go, they'll be slightly better than stock, but nothing too fancy...

get the spring isolaters too
