I have a few videos I ripped from CDs that I'm loading onto a personal plex server, but all of them use the type of subtitles that will force the video to transcode.

Is there an easy place for finding .srt files? I figured this community would know...

Emby and Plex can do it automatically depending on the rip, but you can manually search on places like OpenSubtitles.

Also you can OCR the DVD/Bluray subs using SubtitleEdit and then export as SRT. Requires a bit of work and babysitting, but helps for niche stuff or special features.
