Rear spring recommendation

[Trialrun]

Before you lash out and say "go search dummy", I've read hundreds of posts about suspension set ups and thought I picked a good set up, however i'm just not happy with my rear springs after driving around for a month. Currently running the OME 890's, they are too firm for my liking.

Full set up is:

Front:
Fox 2.0 coilovers IFP Regular Travel (0-2") - 985-02-003

Rear:
Icon 2.0 Shocks 56514 - for 96-02 4Runner
OME 890 Springs (I originally ordered the 906 springs but didn't notice they sent me the wrong ones until I installed them - not sure if this is the issues but i'd like to hear from folks running the 906 regarding ride quality)

I normally don't carry a load or have a metal rear bumper

Let me know your thoughts based on real world recommendations i.e. run that set up on your rig.

Cheers

Personally I like the Toytec Superflex but that would be quite a boost in lift for you, so to make it look "right" you'd probably want to upgrade your front suspension too. I'm about to be running the Toytec 3" coilovers in the front on Billys and superflex 4" coils in the back with Billys and am super excited! I plan on putting my front springs on the 2nd perch in order to level out the rake it will have.

I run the 890s with 4th gen Bilsteins and find them perfect to borderline too soft. 906s are stiffer than the 890s.

Either a total difference of preference, or maybe the sock valving is not real good for the 890s

I've got a stock rear bumper and average load (approx 100# of tools and stuff) and I also run the OME 890s with ProComp's NGTR-4R shocks from Toytec - it's a good quality ride. Get a longer rear brake hose while you're at it.

thanks for the feedback so far, is anyone here running the ICON rear shocks that can talk towards the springs they paired them with?
