Rear sway bar diameter?

What is the diameter of the stock C32 or c55 (it appears to be the same PN) rear sway bar? I have a non AMG w203 and I'm looking for a cheap upgrade. My stock rear sway bar is 15mm.

Thank you for your help.

Are you sure about these? 16mm seems a bit skinny for an amg and 15mm and 16mm rear bars are common among c320s and c230s. Even found a c230 19mm bar. I guess I'll buy that one.

Sorry, should've said those are copy and pasted from a search. No idea on their validity.

I appreciate your help none the less. I found a cheap 17mm bar that supposedly came off the back of a C55. I'll post the PN here when I get my hands on it. I thought the AMG rear bar would be larger than that but maybe not. Going from 15mm to 17mm should be a huge improvement on my top heavy wagon.

23mm front sway bar, PN 2093230065 with separate bushings.

17mm rear sway bar, PN 2033262065

Both supposedly came off of an 05 C55 although I don't know that for a fact. I'm really happy with the results.

The sway bars came complete with bushings, mounting caps and endlinks. The totalled c55 they came off of only had 38k miles. $100 for the pair. God bless fleabay.
