Actually, I think C32 Sway bars are 22mm Front and 16mm Rear.

Yeah, the rears were most likely measured incorrectly. Should be 19mm.

btw...a small dia diff makes an exponential impact on stiffness and control.

sorry, but few facts

1. C55 actually has the same sway bar as the C32. 22mm front and 16mm rear.

2. if you have the 26mm and 19mm you probably have the H&R sway bar.

3. both C32 and C55 have 12mm endlink. don't know how did you get them in 10mm endlink.

Thanks for the correction again. My shop acknowledged he may have measured at the bends on the front and simply needs to remeasure the rears.
Most likely you are right that the C55 sway bars are 22/16 and not 24/15.

Do you know who makes the biggest sway bars? On your other post, you listed Brabus but are there others? Do you have a link where I can purchase them at a good price? I'm going to cancel my H&R order.

From another older thread:
"Available for the C32, we have the following:

Stock W203: F20/R13
StockC32: F22/R16
Evo: F24/R19
Eibach: F24/R22
H&R: F26/R19


The stock sedan bars have a 7 point spread between the front and rear bars. The C32 bars have a 6 point spread. The Evosport's have 5 points, the Eibach, 2 points, and the H&R's 7 points. What point shall I make?..."


https://mbworld.org/forums/c32-amg-c55-amg-w203/74637-c32-sway-bar-thread.html

I think I've read before of someone buying the H&R Front and combining it with the Eibach Rear for the thickest possible combination(F26/R22). Not sure how it worked out though....

Maybe I can ask Tirerack if it would work but good suggestion if I can't find the Brabus setup.
