How do i compress an image to fit on a DVD-R (4.7GB)?

Question

I have an image for disc 2 of computer game that is 6.07GB How do i compress the files in the image, to around 4.5GB to fit on a DVD-R? I want to keep the final output file some type image. This way I can either burn it to a 4.7GB DVD and and it will be like the original disc or so i can use my virual drive to "pretend" as if it were the original disc, whenever i put it in the drive. Basically i want to keep from buying a set of DL 8.5GB discs just for one file. Ive tried dumping the files into a win RAR file it only compressed the files to like 5.3 GB. I havent tried anything else beside this. any suggestions? thanks.
