Default Leave the stock rear springs?

I have HAL QA1s with drag springs going on in front as well as a pair HAL QA1 in the back, the car has a set of Tubular LCAs and panhard bar going in as well as a Traclink Torque Arm. Should I just leave the stock springs in the back or are their better options for back springs?

Stock rear springs are what everybody I know uses.

Yeah I have seen a lot of cars running really good on the back springs, mine have under 70K on them and they dont sag, I may just keep them.

I'm running a 96 v6 springs with hose mod. It has a nice stance with the 9" under there, but no track results yet.

Fastest NA LS1 in the country runs stock rear springs. I think they will work fine.
