Smile Traction bars, lower control arms

I've been looking at ways to get better traction without going to drag radials and I came across JEG's Jegsters lift bars. Has anybody had any experience with these? What do you use? I now have Steeda upper and lower control arms. Is it worth it to switch to something like the Jegster lift bars? Thanks.

I've used Lakewood lift bars before with very good results. Really strange feeling to feel the chassis lift like that, but it plants the tires.

Just added Hotchkis adjustable uppers and an air lift bag to the right rear spring.Set the pinion angle for 3 degrees. Also put Dunlop FM901s on the biggest size is 245/45-17 but thats what I needed. My wife has them on her MINI cooper and found them to be real sticky autocrossing. The car seems to hook a little better we'll see next track day July 30th. I wish my class would just allow drag radails.
