I wrote an article on the Paonians a few month ago.
The high boots of various styles as thy appear in contemporary art are basic equipment.
Is is believed that the Scythian felt saddle was known to Greeks in the 4th century so you can use it. They are attested as both as scouts and shock horsemen so various type of equipment who could do the job and the inclusion or exclusion of armor is possible.

Though the safe bet would be to model them on Thessalian or Macedonian cavalry there is a peculiarity. Metal fragments in Tirana and Monastir Museums originated in what once was Paeonia, dated in the 4th cent BC show warriors with "ilyrric" helemts.
Add the attached image of king Patraos depicting Paeonian horseman with what seem to be an "ilyrric" helemt and you can get some ideas.
