Ripped CV Boots

Hi Everyone,

I was getting some grease marks on my front wheels and upon further inspection I noticed both front CV Shaft outer boots are ripped. Based on what I have read I am most likely to replace both front shafts.

Now is there a "specific" brand on shafts I should go with?
DSS
CARDONE
SURTRACK/TRAKMOTIVE
APWI

Vehicle is a 2003 with 200k, also how soon should I change them or can I wait it out? (I drive 6-7k per year) Reason for this is I may change few other things such as wheel bearings, brakes etc. under there while at it.

Thanks in advance
