Dallas may know what he's running for bar & spring?

Generally shocks too soft. not enough bump valving on the rear. ive tried countering this with stiff springs in the rear and stiffer rear bar and while it helps it doesnt fix it. only real way to fix it is to re valve the rear shocks IMO

Yea its kind of the achilles heel of the evo the old inside wheel lift. Dallas has done alot of work around it i believe. Weve also chased it for a couple seasons and finally getting ontop of it.

Oh, I thought you knew about the OSCA? Heres the results page (See GTL class):

If you have access to MAVTV, last years finals aired just a few days ago where it showed Kens head lifting issue in Las Vegas

Here's your best bet for most the info available.

For wheels, he's on Forgelines ($$$$). https://forgeline.com/wheel/ga1r-open-lug/

How did you finally solve it?

My rear inside wheel lift/hop is mild at this point, but it's still there on low speed, high angle turns (AutoX). I've learned how to drive around it, but I'd prefer if I didn't have to think about it at all while on course.

Ive posted a fair bit about it since Ive had, solved, then had it come back probably more times than most. Mostly cause Ive changed the car so many times.

But here's what helps,

-Less Rear bar, more rear spring
-More rear bias overall (increase grip via camber)
-Raise Roll Centers (Especially Front)
-Less rear compression (sometimes)
-Better front diff
-Less grip (lol)

This is the first time you've mentioned front diff. Care to explain?
