Default floor bar?

has anyone ever tried Arospeed floor bar? does it actually help? or just extra weight in the car to slow you down? anyone with experience on them would be great.

(chassis)Bars are pretty much useless on a non tracked car. Trust me ive waster a bunch on bars. To make your car handle: 1. Tires 2. Alignment 3. Sway bars 4. Dampers

well im kinda a spirited driver...just curious if it had any effectiveness. since the car is already has bars, sways, and lowered. but you gotta admit. even with the regular bars it helps the handling a lot even for a daily driver car..

I'm pretty sure I saw a photo of a floor bar folded in half in a car before. Not that the floor wouldn't have done the same perhaps. I can't remember the specifics of the accident.

probably if you didn't allow for pivot points.
(by tacking it in place or something)

They might help a little. But if youre not handling the way you want on the street then you need to look at the quality of parts you have on the car. Bars arent going to make a huge difference. Theyre more of a fine tuning thing.
