Loosening the bushings one at a time, rocking the car, then tightening them back up helps the springs settle faster, and that's advice coming straight from Eric Kent at BMR when I was talking to him about settling springs. Here's exactly what he told me.
"They should be settled in 3-500 miles. If you still have rubber bushings, you can settle them quicker by loosening then re-tightening all the control arm bushings one at a time and bouncing the car some while each is loose. If you have poly or rod ends, you wont have to do this and the car will settle sooner"

Your numbers look completely normal. The car should sit roughly 26.5" all the way around when settled. The reason your rear dropped 2" is because it sat abnormally high stock. Most are around 27.5-27.75". Our project car was much the same way. it measured 28-1/2" stock, but went down to the same 26.5" with our springs
