Default Rear Bar size question for mild spring rates

My GSR serves as daily driver duty but the understeer is a little much. The car is factory weight with the Tokico HP shocks and springs. If i remember right they are 250F and 125R or right about give or take. What's everyone's take on the 22mm ITR bar on a setup such as this?

Okay, i did say that a little off. What i mean is this, at the limits the car plows very easily. Just looking to return a more neutral balance to the ride.

2 things I see wrong with this post..

1 - Pushing the limits on public roads
2 - looking to return something that the car never had.

1. you asked a stupid *** question
2. if it referred to your driving at an autocross or on track, this subject has been covered at least 1000x
3. BAN!
thank you and have a nice day.

You're asking about a daily driver street car in the ROADRACE/AUTOX forum. Why does that confuse you? Next time ask your question in the right forum, like, oh I don't know, the SUSPENSION forum.
