Springs?
Ok so in the spring id like to get a set of springs but I first have a question... I want to reduce the body roll when doing rough turns but I DO NOT want to lower my Yaris! due to The ground clearance that I need for winter driving.
Will this be obtainable with just a set of stiffer springs? PS: I plan on also getting a rear sway bar this spring too! Thanks for you guys' help :-)

The rear anti-sway bar will reduce body roll significantly.
I'm not sure where you will find stiffer springs at OEM ride height. All aftermarket springs that I'm aware of drop the car at least 1" (Eibach) and up to a 2" drop. Coil-overs (with adjustable spring perches) may be your only choice, and a much more expensive route. One solution may be to choose the springs with least drop and then recover some ride height come winter with taller than spec. winter tires.
