RE: strut bars worth it?
the funny thing is my spare tire is actually a factory tire that I swapped out when I got new rims/wheels, so its fricken heavy. The spare tire included with my car was too small and I figured why spend the money.If someone could explain the position of the back bar wouldnt affect the tire I would be glad to get it.
Is there a specific ebay one I should get? They all look somewhat different. Do I have to jack the car up to install?
What is the difference between a sway bar?

^ no what? Its not worth it? Driving my 99 DX with a front strut bar vs. my friends 96 DX without a strut bar is super noticable difference

No u don't have to jack up the car, u just have to take off some nuts put the bar on and then put the nuts back on 15-20 min tops if the nuts are real tight. Then go take some tight turns
and u will def feel the dif.

they say to jack it up because it relaxes the tops of the struts so that when you install and set it back downit binds the chassis up and make it stiff. I suggest looking for 1 peice bars w/o pivoting points on them.
