Even with new springs, I would have still needed air bags to keep the truck level when towing, so I spent the money on the bags instead of new springs. Ideally I'd put new stock springs and add a leaf, but I haven't been able to justify the money so far.
I just lived with it when towing with my 4Runner. It handled just fine towing even when baggy assed in the rear.
My 4Runner was the best riding vehicle I ever owned
