improve road handling and brake system
I use the G class as daily car and noticed the G is a bit soft with the suspension. Surprisely the G350 uses AMG shock ?!?! but somehow it still feel soft when turning through the corner; sepcially when u try to brake and turn at the same time which causes the tire lose traction 
1. want to keep the same height
2. don't want to get the BRABUS air-suspension(ride control); too dear
What option should i go ?
1. upgrade to 20" wheel ?
2. upgrade Brembo Big Brake (380mm) ?
3. BRABUS sports dampers reinforced ?
many thanks.

1. Go to a thicker sway bar in rear at least.
2. Install HD Bilsteins. Check to make sure BS makes them for this model. As I recall they do.
3. Put a bit more air in your rear tires.
Braking and turning may cause loss of traction in any case. If it is AWD try turning in smartly and giving it gas. I am told this is recommended for understeering cars. It works in my G500. Practice in a big open parking lot without obstructions until you get the knack of it for safety sake.
GLuck!
