Default New Springs on the Sportsman?

hey all, noticed that my rear end of my 1999 sportsman 500 sags alot when i have a 2nd rider or put a trailer or small load on the rear racks. any suggestions on some new aftermarket springs?
the front end is fine even with winch and brushguard as i added 2" spring spacers a a couple years ago. thanks all
