Default shock oil

so i just picked up the axial ax30092 aluminum bodied adjustable shocks for my deadbolt as the original ones leak like a mofo. what is a recommended shock oil weight for these to make them similar to but maybe a lil more dampening that stock? and is there any specific recommended brand of oil. i dont know much about shock oil. thanks

If you check ebay, you can find a Losi shock oil set. I think its 5 bottles of different wt.
I use 25 in my deadbolt shocks

One small bottle of TLR oil is enough to do all the shocks multiple times.
I prefer 20wt oil TLR Blue in my ridgecrest.
