Default Worthy?

Are strut bars worth getting to improve handling?

Some of my friends say strut bars are unnecessary for civics since the civics' chassis are small and do not flex much.

I dunno what to choose.

They help a good bit actually. I cant really explain it but the car feels a good bit tighter. Click the link in my sig as a sponser is having a group buy on such products right now. I am also moving this to the suspension forum for you to get more feedback.

Cool thanx guys!

Just one more question: is the "worthiness" felt even with stock struts/ springs?
