Mmm, that logic is a bit backwards. If you are looking to increase rotation you would go soft front and stiffer rear. The stiffer you go with sway bars the less lateral grip, so that's why it is about finding the balance between body roll, responsiveness and traction. Whiteline actually appears to have put some thought and testing into it, Hotchkis not so much.
