That's the one I was thinking of getting at some point. I've tried the 25mm Hotchkis and found it way too stiff. The TRD is just under 21 mm iirc, so I figured the 22 mm would be a good middle ground.



I didn't find it funny because I didn't believe him -- I do think the car would be more settled at the rear with a bigger bar. What I found funny is that he's able to talk while driving so fast!
