The front is looser than the rear under that scenario. Which means the front rolls a bit more, and since the rear doesn't roll it has to slide. So it's all about the balance of the two.

I'd still think that softening the front relative to the rear would be the way to increase overall traction. I.e. upgrade both front and rear, but put rear on stiffer and the front on softer. So both bars are stiffer than stock, but the rear increases stiffness more than the front.

Suspension is confusing...
Most auto x guys run no rear and a hard front. Doran runs a huge front! I now have a stock rear and whiteline front set to full hardness. It feels fine but still lots of body roll! Dare I say feels like more body roll than stock? But stock alignment blows and left to rights are off 0.5* on both so no report till I finish what I want.
