Replace Struts/Shocks Only?

I have searched with not satifactory answer so far.

Question: Will replacing my shocks and struts only with Tokico Blues be beneficial at all to my ride/ handling. Stock SE setup is pretty good but I bottom some times and bound over some freeway dips. I do not want to lower the car either. Has anyone else replaced on the dampers on thier max?

thanks!

the toks should be stiffer, giving you better road feedback and possibly less roll when taking turns and tilt when accelerating or braking.

tokicos are 15% stiffer than stock. they should be fine since you are going to keep the stock springs.
