Which Suspension Upgrade(s)?

[SpeedingYaris]

I live in an area with significant snowfall, and would prefer to not lower my car. I will buy the rear swaybar, but will i notice a worthwhile improvement with upgraded shocks/struts? And has anyone had experienced with snowfall with a trd spring lowered yaris?

That's not an aggressive drop, I'm sure you'd be fine -- other choices in brand include Eibach Prokits and H&R progressive springs.

You will notice a huge difference with upgraded struts/shocks. Much crisper response, more road feel, and the total combination of sway bar, springs and struts/shocks make the Yaris feel like a different car (a better one).

Throw on some winter tires and fear nothing! I don't hesitate to go anywhere in Ontario during winter. I've only been stuck once. Buddy up the street blew the snow from his drive onto our unplowed street and I bellied up onto it. It was over 12 inches deep. I did negotiate 30 miles of that storm only to get stuck 100 yards from my own driveway.

If you choose not to lower...a rear anti-sway bar alone will greatly improve handling. Upgrading to performance dampers is normally the first and most effective upgrade however the Yaris desparately needs that rear bar in any case.
