I have found that my Yaris (2007 3 Dr RS LB) wanders on the highway .. and I am interested in what suggestions that anyone may have about it.
I am going for a trip on the highway today .. so I shall see how it performs.
I am thinking about getting a TRD Rear Sway Bar .. as I have read that it may help. What do you think ?
i upgraded to RS wheels and 195/55/15 and it doesnt budge

Adding an anti-sway bar works wonders. I did one prior to my other suspension mod's and it was instant relief from the hiway blues.

I didn't find it that bad today ... but there are still issues. I just got new tires so getting other tires is not going to happen. But the sway bar is an option for the future. I am not really into making tons of suspension mods as really I drive 90% in the city and mostly under 60 km/h ... and I take the corners slowly so I do take things pretty easy. :thumbup:
My car is 100% stock .. but some minor mod (like a sway bar) could be something I could squeeze in. It is just that if I do go on the highway .. I would like things to be a little more relaxed (can I say straight) and a little less white knuckle driving.
If it just started and you just got new tires you could take it back to the tire shop to make sure the alignment is correct.
But a rear sway bar($199.75) and (http://shop.microimageonline.com/Whiteline-22mm-Adjustable-Rear-Swaybar-Yaris-xD-BTR86Z.htm) lowering springs (http://shop.microimageonline.com/Springs_c19.htm) are the usual fix.

I sent an email to one of the local Toyota dealers re the TRD Sway Bar .. and they say that there is no TRD Rear Sway Bar for a 2007 Yaris. I think they are on crack as I have seen them advertised on Ebay.
