See, this is where heavy 20" rims and 500lb of stereo equipment would come in handy... snow traction!

The TRD rear sway bar is not "heavy" or "oversize," is it? Again, I would think that adding that piece, along with better tires, should provide a handling improvement in slippery conditions.

If I am off base here, feel free to just tell me, "hey, you're nuts!" :)

I think the 07 Yaris doesn't have an extra rear sway bar, in which case adding one in should cause a noticeable change to the car's dynamic. Perhaps with summer tires, it might make for some fun, not sure about the winter. If you do try it, let us know.
