Do what you want. If you have barspins and truckdrivers SUPER dialed then get maybe 17 or 18 if you think they feel better then skinnier bars. But I would just get the 16s.

i rode 16's for a pretty long time and switched to 18's.
when i first rode them, i thought i would definitely cut them because trucks were a lot harder.
then i rode them for a while and was really glad i kept them because i got truck drivers and bars dialed now and the width feels really good.

sooooo..... id stick with18's because theyll be worth it in the long run

i ride 17 wide. Its good but I do have to stand a bit further back on the deck or else the bars will hit my leg..

There was a period of two weeks (after it my XT bars cracked) in wich I was riding vert with 26" wide bars, and I could barspin (and it actually felt like a trick finally, not something you throw inbetween 2 whips)...
So yeah, go for 18"...

I find bars easier with wider bars than stock, I rode stock for a while so I could do bar combos but they arent my sort of trick, I can still do all the stuff i used to be able to do with stocks but I ride 19s now which feel alot smoother.
