sway bar upgrade
Would it be worthwhile to upgrade my front and rear sway bars to the C63 ones. They are 1 mm bigger front and back than my C350 ones, and 2 mm bigger than the C250 ones. Would 1 mm make much of a difference?
I had H&R sways on my previous car (05 C230), and found their bars OK; the bushings that they supply suck. That's why I am leaning towards staying with OEM stuff.
I am also considering a sport spring kit as well

A lot of people with 3 series or 1 series upgrade to M3 sway bars.
It does improve it a bit. Having driven an M3 a fair bit it is better but not enough for me.
The C63 does have thicker sway bars, but it isn't just the sway bars that give it its suspension feel.
Went with Eibach. No complaints they are great and thicker and better than C63 Sway bars. Night and day difference to stock bars.
H&R is also an option. Can't comment on these though.

Any update on this? Interested in getting some sway bars to stiffen up body roll on my coupe but have come up short on numerous google searches. How are the 63 sways working out for you or did you go with another option?
