Default Rear Drop

Okay now ive had my tein springs on for a while now and the front drop is amazing and i couldnt ask for anything better. BUT! The rear still seems like a huge gap between the wheel well. Its starting to get on my nerves and im trying to either

1 find rear coilovers only
2 get adjustable struts
3 kill myself

Anyone help or suggestions would be great. Looking for a 1/2 inch drop or more btw.

how long is a while? I'd image the front would settle faster than the back due to the added weight of the engine. Throw a couple of bodies in the trunk and you'll be golden

what kind of shocks do you have?

rear Bilstein shocks are grooved and can be adjusted slightly.
