As DFP says wide bars won't help.
Narrow is better to learn with.

It's also worth pointing out that the current trend for barspins (Mainly adopted by riders with slammed seats) is to busdriver the bar rather than actually throw them. Basically when the throwing hand lets go it continues to push the bar through the full spin. Whether this is aesthetically better or worse than actually throwing the bars is up to you as an individual.
