Well in drifting stabilizers = nice touch to the chassis. They make little if no difference unless you're going round corners looking for maximum grip on rubber tires.

As for supsnesion settings in relation to tire choice then yes; I can see why a different setup may be needed.

If you run with ABS you get little traction at all; great for a stock car or any car with any type of suspension setup - even really soft.

If you have a different tire - especially the Tamiya drift tires - you'll wnat a stiffer setup; because it is harder to break the traction.

You also have to consider weight distribution on the chassis. I found this with my TA03F, that because I wanted a soft setup (maximum control) the engine and the whole front of the car dragged along the floor. And because I had to make that stiffer to support the weight of the motor, I had to stiffen the rear to counter-balance.

Basically; you always want to have a stiffer setup on the back than on the front, because this helps turn-in.
