Okay. I'm working under the basic assumption that harder front vs back = understeer and harder back vs front = oversteer here (which might be wrong as heck). So:
22 + 16 : Slight understeer bias.
22 + front strut + 16 (what most of us are running now) : Increased understeer?
If you want a (relatively) neutral bias (aka, less tail happy but not understeer happy either) now, you would need:
a) 22 + front strut + 16 + rear strut
b) 22 + front strut + 18/22
That is, if we ONLY consider the struts and ARBs. Not the sus or the rims/tyres (considering bro CKK had to get his sus rebuilt, we can safely say Potong adjusted the geometry of the rear sus as well).
IINM. Please korek me if I'm wrong (which I think I am wor).
Bro, I have changed mine, rear ARB, to 23mm. Now my passengers no more complaining of seasick. 22 + 16 : Slight understeer bias.

My experience on 23mm: can take sharp corners with more confidence (less understeer) but on undulating roads, as our springs are still soft, still can feel the sampan effects.
Then again, I am still on stock wheels. Suspect the high profile tires, which I think 50-series should fare better.
Just my two cents.
