shocks are basically used to regulate the sping's oscillations... with aftermarket shocks you can basically adjust the bump and rebound settings... with your 3inch lower, im guessing that the spring rates are definatly different to the standard spring rates which are matched with the standard shocks.... replacing the shocks and adjusting them to suit your lowered springs rates would definatly give you a benefit......

My Bilstein shocks have arrived! So soon I'll have 4 new shocks to match my lowered springs soon. :D
