Question 2003 G22 Front / Rear Suspension Fix?

so i had worn front shocks on my 2003 G22. I fixed the front by shimming the bottom of the springs with $5.50 worth of pipe clamps. Pics can be found here:

Now im just curious. Since the rear shocks are not a "Strut" type shock, can you replace them with an automotive type shock of the same size rather than ordering Yamaha ones? imma big guy and would like to have the added support if its possible.

Has anyone done this before?
