I have mine set on 3 in the front and 4 in the back. I really like this setup! Try it and see if it fits your driving style!

In cold weather they get stiffer. I have mine on 1/1 for the winter and that's plenty stiff at these temps... 3/4 was brutal.

Agreed. I installed mine about a month ago when it was 70 degrees out... this morning it was 25 and it felt like I was riding with a steel bar in place of my struts.

ps. on a related note, 3/3 is my favorite setting for this setup. 5 was way too harsh.
