Bilstein 7100 valved 150/50?

Just picked up a pair(2) of 14" 7100s for $170, but they're valved 150/50. Seems really low...
Can I run them and be okay? Is anyone running this setup? Itll be in the back through the wheel well mounted with a shock hoop. Im running 4" lift and 35s. Thanks in advance
 
7100s are revalveable. My XJ has 255/75 valving out back and is a little soft at speed but fine for normal use. I'd imagine 150/50 would be too soft for normal use and bad at speed. I would get them valved stiffer, maybe 278/80 or whatever is one stiffer than the 255/75 I have. But that also all depends on what you use the XJ for.
 
That valving is for a dual shock setup, yes it will be way too low. They can be revalved.
