I've always used a rub with kick in combination with a sweet sauce. Would it be better to use a sweet rub with a sauce with kick to balance out the flavors?
 
You'd probably get more sweetness out of the sauce. Then there's Simply Marvelous sweet rubs... :)
 
The sweeter the rub the more you add the possibility of burning the sugars. If you like the flavors that you're getting, I suggest keeping things as they are.
 
If you're looking for spice and heat combos, I'd do as the above suggested. Stay with a spicy rub and a sweet sauce.

I don't like sweet (for the most part).
 
I do the same as "Cook". I like a good spicy seasoning with a slightly sweet sauce. As it turns out, if I don't use sauce I still have a good spicy meat. That's just me.
