Which swaybar do you guys recommend for a sedan? the 19mm or 23mm? Has anybody here actually tried both?

Adding a 19mm bar will make a world of improvement for both handling and stabiltiy.
That said, I'm now considering the step up to a 23mm bar as understeer is still prevalent. And when the weight of the Blitz S/C is added up front the power-on understeer can only increase. Time will tell.

With your current set-up, in the rain or snow, do you get understeer of oversteer?

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.
