Default Spring rates, options and opinions?

So the Rancho 6.5" springs are said to make a true 6.5" lift but haven't found the spring rate yet. The Rough Country's 4.5" springs are 22" long, 14wraps and 155lds/in. The 6.5" springs are 22.5" long, 12.5 wraps, and 180lbs/in. With the weight on the front of my Jeep with a Rough Country 4" spring and a 1" spacer now that the front springs have started sagging they measure "including the spacer" 16". Need the front of the Jeep back up at least an inch and a half to two inches but don't want it riding much rougher than how it rides now. It rides very well. What springs are you guys running and what would you suggest? Thanks Ryan
