Use the ride height adjustment collars on the shocks. Looks like you've got tons of room for agistment.

Like gigaplex said there is a lot of preload on your shock collars, there is about 2mm of preload on mine when rear end is sitting at a ride height of 5.2mm

All of us are adding +3mm under wing for body mount to raise the rear even more ..its a good amount of rake it maximizes steering

Glad you figured it out. New cars have tons of adjustment but the shock collar is still probably the most adjusted piece of your car.

It should point up, better clearance over curbs and it sits at the right height to support the body
