Default fixing rake on a stock 2011 with 33s

Hey guys, I have a 2011 2 door Rubicon with alloy usa 1.5" Spacers on wheels and 285/70/17 BF Goodrich All Terrain tires, Its completely stock other wise, And I wish to fix the rake it has even as slight as it is, Would Daystar 0.75" fix this or would it be too high?. I want a perfectly level stance, and not high because It'd make me feel like my tires are too small, So just a 0.75" Daystar spacer in front would be the fix or no? What else have you guys done? I want it to be less than an inch if possible.

Are you sure you're not imagining the rake? I'm pretty sure there is no factory rake on the 2011 and onwards 2 doors. I know mine doesn't have a rake!

Yes, I ran a .75 rear and 1.75 front and jeep was level so just a .75 front should be close

Yes, 3/4" spacers should level it out.

I would use the full teraflex lift. I am running it with 285 and my tires look great.

Thanks for replies, I have a 2 door though, So, If I buy this kit:

Daystar KJ09138BK - Daystar 3/4" Comfort Ride Lift Kit in Black for 07-13 Jeep® Wrangler & Wrangler Unlimited JK - Quadratec

and only put front spacers, will it be level?.

The teraflex works for 2 and 4 door. And after the kit is installed, your jeep will sit level.
