It'll vary car-to-car. Depending on what spring rate you have, what tyre make, model, size, and pressure, how much your car weighs, and how you prefer it to feel, can all have an effect on the settings which are right for you 
I would suggest setting them up somewhere in the middle, give it a try, then adjust by a few clicks in either direction, and try again. It's going to be a learning process until you find out how you prefer it

I believe I'm at 12 clicks front 9 clicks rear but I'm always adjusting.
The older I get the softer the setting gets.
