Default Hydraulic Bump Stops

I currently am running the OME 2" with heavy duty rated coils. I am thinking about getting the teraflex speedbump bump stop kit as I do a lot of off roading on the beach. I just wanna make sure since the coils are rated for some 18,000 pounds I won't be wasting my money by getting the bumpstops if the coils aren't going to compress as easily. Might be a stupid question, but I'm not trying to spend $500 for something I won't get the full potential out of

For a 100 bucks more you can get true hydraulic bumpstops that are tunable. But im sure speedbumps will work fine with those coils.

I also wasn't keen on the higher cost bumpstops, strictly from a "bang for buck" perspective I opted for the Pro Comp EXPMX2040B

Couldn't be happier with their performance, however I fear they might not last as long as I had hoped. After a few months, they are getting a bit weak and beat up. I suspect ill be changing them at the same interval as my shocks.
