What coil to pair for Bilstein 5100?

I recently bought a set of Bilstein 5100, can i run it with the stock coil of my 2006 4R SE? If so i notice there are 4 lines on the shock body, where would be the optimum placement of the C-clip?

Any suggestion what Coil just for the front, to pair it with my Bilstein 5100? part number would greatly help. i plan to lift no more than 2" on the front.

I've been running the OME/Bilstein combo for a few years with lots of street/offroad use. 884 with the 5100s on the second notch for the front and 895 for the rear.

Pretty happy with the setup, the 895s were a bit to hard for my liking due to the lack of weight so I switched them for a set of 80 series front coils (yup same combo from the 3rd gen). I'll be adding at least 100-200 pounds of car audio crap so will probably swap them in again.

If you are not planning on doing anything serious offroad, you can get away with stock coils.

I ended up using the stock front and rear coil for now, it looks good, the 5100 set on the 3 line from the bottom and bigger tires gave my4R about less than 2 inch lift and paired with 275/70R17 BFG AT KO2
