Yaris Handling

I can see the treads affecting the ride.

What I also see is a 6 year old car...how are the shocks and struts?-- you say it dips and dives.

Also a 6 year old car, when was the last alignment done? I noticed drastic improvements with the rear sway bar as well as lowering and widening the stance of my Yaris. That said, the biggest difference by far was when I got an alignment done

There are a number of factors that could come into play ,a more rigid frame, harder suspension,after market wheel offset and width ,alignment.Also having sway bars also hinders the independent movement of each strut so what ever hits one side also effects the opposite side because it connects the left and right side together, no sway bar means more independent mobility better for uneven rough surfaces ,too many factors.
