SWAY BAR SIZES, anybody know?

How much thicker are H&R sway bars compared to the stock C32 AMG sway bars? Front and Rear?

How thick are H&R's, AMG's, Eibach's, Brabus', Carlsson's?

Really, how can a person with such a good name be so lazy?

They've been posted a zillion times, mostly by Lynn. I don't have his patience, so I'll tell you to STFF.

The newer front bars have the bushings molded to the bar now, so front bushings and brackets are not required.
