spare tire kit / strut bar questions

Hey. Currently i have the spare tire kit in my trunk. i have been thinking about installing subs, and if i did so, then i would have to get rid of the "strut bar" that mounts the spare.

if i remove this bar, will i lose performance or rigidity or anything? is rigidity even a word? does this bar even act as a strut bar, or is it useless for that purpose?

thanks for any responses

The bar for the spare doesn't do anything significant to the suspension. It's just there to mount the tire.
