I wouldn't recommend it.
The dampers need to control the springs. The higher the spring rate, the more control is required. 50mm lower springs won't be effectively controlled by standard dampers.
Add to that the fact that you're probably talking 8-9 year old shocks. Japanese domestic market shocks aren't exactly renowned for their longevity!
And those Pedders ads are right... 2-3 years and shocks are getting iffy.
