Lots of folks replace the stock shocks for better all-around performance -- and with MUCH lower miles than you. Lots of threads, like this: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-c...ade-wahoo.html
Since your C6 is lowered on aftermarket bolts, I'm guessing "just shocks" won't be enough. Some ideas: http://www.lgmotorsports.com/catalog...?cPath=546_554

My C6 is lowered all the way in the front on stock bolts and nearly all the way (1 full turn left) on after-markets bolts in the rear. I replaced my shocks at 35k with Bilstein HD shocks. The new shocks have made a huge difference in the ride and handling.
Depending on your driving style, shocks maybe all you need which is true in my case.
I wish I had replaced the stock shocks much sooner!
