I have my front HPF at 100, rear HPF at 120 and sub set to through since the LPF is handled by the amp. The slope I have set at 12, gain is 0. However, I gave up on the factory speakers in my 2004 many years ago. Currently I have a fully custom sound system.
For my settings I found I was unable to use what others had. Each vehicle and the components installed are different for each. So the settings have to be custom for your system and your preference. I just did a bit of research on what each setting does and then kept messing with the settings until I got what sounded right to me. Aside from the EQ settings, the time delay made the biggest difference in sound quality.

I set the crossover point for front door speakers at 60hz (JBL gto939) and the same for the rear doors (JBL 609c). I set the sub crossover point at 80 hz with a 24db slope. Currently I have 2 JBL stadium 12 inch subs and set subsonic at 20hz.

The JBL Stadium series are really nice speakers. I've got JBL GTO860C front and GTO860 rear. I wish I had gotten the GTO860C for the rear as well. I really like having the tweeters right below the windows. Man a pair of 12" subs would be sweet, I was itching for a single 12". Ultimately I was stuck with a single 10" in a custom ~.95cu ft sealed fiberglass enclosure that fits where the factory 8" plastic box was. I couldn't afford to loose any interior space and I wanted as little visible as possible.
I kept thinking my HOF and LPF settings were not as I had noted from my spreadsheet. Here's an update to my previous post after checking my head unit and amp.
HPF front is 90
Slope is -12DB
Gain is 0
HPF rear is 100
Slope is -12DB
Gain is 0
LPF on the sub is ~90, it's just a dial.
Slope is fixed at 24DB.
