billstein 5100 notch question

Getting billstein 5100 shocks installed in the front and rear with OME 2885 springs in the front. I'm not sure how much I should notch it, I have air bags in the rear to level out the back. How much stiffer would the ride be if I just put it on the first notch as opposed to leaving it on 0?

 

Ideally, you want to leave it at 0 setting.
But do not go over 1 setting. Doing so can damage the shock.

The 885s are supposed to give you 2”-2.5” of lift on the 0 setting.
Some guys (and shops) run them on the 1 setting to accommodate for settling in the future.

Shop that assembles them on 1 setting (for reference).

First notch only,any higher and you will have problems.

 

Thank you
