Hi everyone,

I own a 06 corolla ascent hatchback with stock shocks and 15inch steelies. I feel alot of bodyroll when cornering and wonder if the trd rear sway bar itself will significantly reduce this? I plan to put 17inch alloys later aswell, will that reduce bodyroll aswell?

Thanks in advance

Wheels wont make any difference to body roll. What you need are stiffer springs to control the roll. Make sure they are lower as with 17's the Corolla will look like a Hi-Lux.

The rear anti roll bar makes a slight difference to body roll and to the handling, but don't be expecting the car to suddenly corner flat.

Thanks guys. I'll get one asap.

When just taking corners at 30kph is pretty bad, hopefully the rear sway will reduce this at that speed?

Unfortunately, I'm not planning to lower my ride because of cost atm, its hard enough to save for wheels with legal tyres at 17inch lol. Might go 16 inch instead... Anyone have pics of zze122 corolla with 16 or 17inch wheels at stock height?

You should match the rear sway with a front strut.

A rear sway on it's own seems incomplete as only the rear end of your vehicle feels heavy.

16inch is probably the most sensible option.
