Default Need a little more low

I recently switched out my tires from a 245/40 rear to 225/45 on all four corners and also i added spc ball joints to the rear to correct the camber and throw in a little more positive to help with tire wear. personally i know a lot of people prefer the 245 over the 225 but i like the stretch look and i have an rx7 for track duties so shes my daily reliable sexy beater so no need for function over form stuff here. Ever since i added the positive camber the car just looks a little too high for me in the rear, the front is perfect so no need to adjust there. Problem is my coilovers are maxed in the rear, any one have any good real world ideas to lower the car a bit more? im trying to get it done as soon as possible cause shes driving every day and i want to get the alignment done already. Im sure people are gonna flame me over this but just help me out, honestly the car is low but i know it could be lower cause it used to be lower before. the scissor jack is my measurement on that, only reason its higher now is the positive camber, so please gents help?

thanks in advance!
