OME rear trim packers....how many is too many

Like the title says.....how many is too many?
I removed the front and rear sway bars and have more lean than I’d like. Basically it’s nowhere near where it was before removal.
On perfectly level surface, the garage, the left rear is 1.5” lower than the passenger side. I’m thinking of putting at least 2 on the drivers side, 3 if it’s safe since there only 10mm packers

1 is the most I'd use on one corner, get thicker ones if you need more than 10mm. With a 1.5" variance I'd be looking to make sure the high side rear spring is properly seated in the bucket at the top and not riding on the lip for some reason.
 
I just have the trim packers on hand so it was an easy fix. Everything is seated correctly. Even removed to make sure springs weren’t on the wrong side. With no sway bars the height changes literally every time you park. It’s crazy. Just went out and measured and it’s only .5” now.
 
How hard are you parking?!? LOL!

Give the back bumper a few bounces before measuring and see if that makes any difference. 1/2" isn't unusual, 1.5" is a problem. I assume the fronts are even as you haven't mentioned them? If you adjust up the opposite corner on the front (it looks like you've got coilovers?), it should bring the high corner in the rear down as well.
 
The front was off too. Both leaning towards the driver side. Just adjusted the coil overs to match so the front was easy. I’m also going to turn up the dampening on the shocks since they’re on the softest setting.
