Default Adding 3.5 coils to rear with 2.5's in the front?

I have a 4 door jk with a 2.5 inch pro comp coil lift.... Now with that being said my rear sags due to the weight of the spare tire, bumper, and such. Now if I bought myself a pair of 3.5 inch rock krawler rear coils, would that be a smart way to level the vehicle out or would that cause problems?

3.5 wouldn't level it, it would cause a huge rake more than likely. If you have pro comp rears now try using .5in or 1 in spacers. Or if you want RK springs 2.5 would probably be good.

Now are you saying replace front and back springs with RK?

If you wanted to just level out the rear I would try spacers in rear coils first.
