Strut Bar?
I wanted to know if putting a strut bar on my 2007 Chevy Cobalt Lt would be a good idea? I would like to know if it would help my car handle better and if it would be bad for a car that gets driven in the winter?

I think most people will say TTR or Over the Top have the best setups.
The bars don't do much on an SS, but for a base model LS or LT, you can really feel it in the corner.
I had a fully bolted and tuned LS with front strut bar and rear sway bar.
In all honesty, the performance parts are a waste of money unless you save up for a turbo or supercharger setup
I didn't notice much improvement with the front strut bar, sway bar makes the car so much nicer when cornering.
Oh and TIRES. They stock conti's suck badly. It's night and day with a good tire on a cobalt.

Yea i'm geting money safed up for tires because the stock ones need to be replaced.
