C36 Sway bars upgrade

Hey guys I need your guys help on this.

The suspension on my euro c36 is stock, I want to upgrade just for road use. I already have got the Vogland 35mm lowering springs and Koni's adjustable schocks in my house ( not installed). And I was wondering if the H&R sway bars are a real upgrade compared to stock amg? what will be the positive effects of the upgrade?

you got the Koni twin tubes.
seller you linked sometimes gives 5% discount.

I'll get the same shox, this way it will be more of lazy comfortable adjusting the settings to my liking.

what thickness pads are you getting to avoid rubbing?


I will pork my Vogtlands onto my car when I get the Koni's.
I will also put all new rubber bushings and suspension rods on rear axle to synergy my front suspension upgrade from last year.
I hope I get what I'm lookin' for?!
more road stability in speed of a carthief

I'll also replace the rubber bushings and suspension rods on rear axle lol. Have no idea what pads to get, what pads will you run?
why don't you upgrade the swaybars, really would like to know if it will give me a noticeable positive effect.

hey budski

I bought what our american friends got for their Koni/Vogtland set up #5/#4 pads

I need to measure my stock swaybars to see if they are thinner than H&R's Mars bars?
if stock Swayzes are thinner, then H&R might be a güt upgrade?

Here's some input, from H&R webiste
no info about C36.
