Potential crappy handling in bad weather is the only thing making me consider the 19mm one.
I've NEVER experienced oversteer whether wet, dry, frozen or deep with white.
After years with RWD cars I crave some four wheel driftability and balance is required to achieve that.

That's nice to know.

The rusty truck in my avitar was detuned last year due to crazy oversteer. 400+ horsepower and a very tight posi rear axle meant that rear end was always trying to come around. It was fun when you wanted it, but it was a pain to drive in the rain. It is probably 325 horsepower now, but a lot nicer to drive.

Since the Yaris is my everyday transportation, I want to stay well away from the edge.
