The racer asked
Which sway bars are right for a glued, extremely high bite track
Miles, So Dialed's RC setup AI
For a glued, extremely high-bite track, use a stiffer front sway bar and a lighter rear bar to reduce traction roll. The Hong Nor iX5B kit bars are 2.3 mm front and 2.5 mm rear; those are the documented baseline sizes for this car.
If the buggy is lifting wheels or traction-rolling in corners, move stiffer at the front and softer at the rear. That balance helps resist chassis roll without adding as much rear roll stiffness, which can make the rear lose grip abruptly. The general off-road guidance identifies this front-stiffer/rear-lighter direction for reducing traction roll.
The available iX5B information doesn’t list alternate bar diameters, so I can’t specify a next size. Check what bars you have and change one end at a time; if the car becomes too pushy, back off the front change or restore some rear stiffness.
