Probably 1" to 1 1/2" according to this thread, specifically post #571.

I would go higher rate. I went from 14/55 to 18/59 with leveling kit. I would look into 19/60.

You do pick up some lift initially, but it all settles out. I've been through too many sets of stock coils to even bother recommending trying it any more. You're better off with a small spacer lift until you go full coils.
