Jeff,
I think one of the reasons my car doesn't like the wheelie bars is the extra 15 lbs of unsprung weight they hang out on the rearend. That has to cause unwanted issues with shock and spring control. I proved my point by raising the bars and not even letting them touch the ground.I can see your improvement with the less spring weight.
Wade,
Good idea about extra springs.
