Default What to do with rear? It sits low

I have a 2007 Sahara 2 door with 2.5 rc budget boost. I like the distance from the tire to the flare to be the same and mine is 1" low in the rear. I have a chance to buy a body armor rear bumper with tire carrier and I beleive I will look like I'm riding a wheelie. The ? is what do I need to do to level it out without changing the lift and spending a furtune.

get some 1 inch coil spacers for the rear to level it out, you will be stacking spacers but it is the cheapest way to go.

Default Found some wedges that might work

I found some wedges that I can put on the bottom of the spings and they should straighten the spring and lift the rear just enough.
