Generally speaking, in my experience, ARB changes have a greater magnitude to handling balance change relative to RCH (roll center height) changes. There is a caveat though, it depends on how much your RCH changes with ride height. Without measuring the RCH and knowing the roll stiffness contribution of the ARB it is impossible to be sure, but you can evaluate both of those and quantify their respective changes in magnitude. Personally, beyond simply a handling adjustment knob I also use this to data evaluate ride height changes vs spring rate changes. That way I can change both at the same time and end up with a car that has the same oversteer/understeer balance.
