Use Windows 8 Disk Management to extend partitions and reduce partitions

WINDOWS8 Disk Management has the ability to compress partitions and expand partitions. You can shrink or expand the partition, right-click a partition, select Compress volume or expand Volume, and then enter how much space you want to shrink or enlarge.

Note: You can extend partitions only if there is unallocated space after the partition, otherwise you cannot expand the partition.
