To keep the car's original ride behavior, you'll want slightly stiffer rear springs for both reasons (stiffer front springs and heavier trunk load). Plan on running the rear Illuminas at a higher setting than the front. For the front, '2' isn't enough to keep that end from constantly heaving up and down when the highway is not dead-flat (think I-95). My opinion with even the OE springs.
One of the things you're trying to avoid is having the front and rear suspensions always moving in opposite directions (nose up/tail down, nose down/tail up). Most people don't like having their heads constantly being tossed forward and backward like a bobblehead doll even if it's only by a little.
