Bilstein Sport shocks with stock springs?

[woody]

I know most of you are swapping out both Springs and Shocks at the same time.

But what if I keep the stock springs but change the shocks to "stiffer" type, like the Bilstein Sports? What effect (positive/negative) will this have on my ride?

I'm not looking to race, just a bit better control/street handling without a big investment.

Bilstein makes the HD for that purpose.
