Yes the value is given in inches, thats mainly due to tube stock here being referenced in inches rather than in metric. I can't specify thickness since you really need to figure out what bar rate your looking for, which isn't something I can give you an answer for. TRD is a 19mm bar and UR is a 24mm bar beyond that I can't give you any answers.

Bar shape is important, as more bends decreases the effective rate of the bar but it really comes down to fitment, if the bars have to bend to fit, they have to bend to fit.

Here is a link that gives a brief explanation of swaybar design.
