From their FAQ:

Q. What is the difference between original equipment TOKICO's and and the ones you sell?
A.Specifications for original equipment shocks are determined by the vehicle manufacturer. The specs for TOKICO's Performance, TREK MASTER and Adjustable Illumina are chosen by our own engineers. Although TOKICO does provide original shocks to a number of vehicle manufacturers, our aftermarket product has different valving as well as deifferent internal design features.

Q. Can I use sport lowering springs with my original shocks?
A. Very few original shocks have the damping necessary to properly control sport lowering springs. Even if they work reasonably well when first installed, the higher rate springs will cause the factory shocks to wear much faster.

Q. Will other springs work with TOKICO shocks?
A. TOKICO shock absorbers have quite a wide range of performance. They are designed to work with original springs or with a wide range of performance lowering springs. However if the spring is not designed properly no shock will work correctly. TOKICO shocks will tend to give the best performance and ride quality when used with original or TOKICO springs.
