Yes you can't change springs in stock class/RTR. Most of the time folks change the front swaybar on McStrut cars like ours to help reduce roll and maintain negative camber during cornering. That's what pretty much everyone is doing on this car since it doesn't really understeer too badly. On some FWD/AWD cars it's a crapshoot, some run big front bars to help out camber, some run bigger rear bars to help get the car to rotate.
