As for the roll-bars, its interesting what Red and Rusty are pointing out and what people are saying on the track forum, more front bar and stock or taking out the rear giving more oversteer.

Which goes against the generalized principals but I guess when something is at an extreme value, especially relative to the other end of the car, many theories can go out the window.

I may actually just try to take out the rear ARB and see how that changes the handling dynamics before I get the new tires, I still probably have a couple months before I have to really.
