Progressive springs or Heavy Duty Springs with a sagging rear end? 200 1989

My 2 front shocks are leaking a little so I am going to switch all the shocks to Blisteins. My rear springs are sagging a bit after being replaced about two years ago. I am considering putting progressive springs on the whole car but I am afraid they will just end up sagging in the back like the last set. My question is should I just replace the rear springs with some heavy duty ones to prevent sagging? I do not really understand why it happens. I am not sure if this has anything to do with it but I keep maybe 50-100 lbs of stuff in the trunk, spare parts, tools, full size spare, subwoofer. It is a 244 btw.

Thanks in advance.
