Define "stiff"
depending on what you want your car to do, either a 1/4 miler or a great corner-carver, swaybars can make a HUGE difference in how your car handles.
if you're setting up your car for the 1/4 then my understanding is a larger rear swaybar than factory is a good thing, like 24mm or 25mm, but it causes your rear end to become fishtail-happy in the turns.
Factory rear swaybars are 19mm, fronts are 31mm(I think.)
for canyon carver, getting bigger swaybars for rear AND front are essential, bigger for the fronts though, like 21mm or 22mm rears & 32mm or 35mm for the fronts.
for cornering, aftermarket sways can be sold together, they usually offer 32mm fronts/21mm rears and for better anti-sway effects, 35mm fronts/22mm rears.
Then you also bring up up the debate on whether to go for solid swaybars(heavy) versus hollow(more expensive but definitely lighter)
