I do have a solution for you, however the SumoSprings Helper Springs # CSS-1195R that you mentioned are only confirmed to fit the 2-Wheel Drive model of your Pilot and the # CSS-1145R is designed for different vehicles and will not fit your Honda Pilot. There is not currently a SumoSprings product available that is designed to work on your AWD Honda Pilot.

For your vehicle, I instead recommend looking at the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # THROD2, which is confirmed to fit your Pilot. These hollow rubber springs will replace the factory bump stops on your vehicle to provide additional support, as needed. They will still allow for ample suspension movement for lighter loads but will become more rigid as more weight is added.

I have attached a short video demonstration on this product, along with the written installation instructions that you can check out.
