I wouldn't trust those to be 100% accurate. As I've found when removing and actually measuring the bars those specs are not always true. You need to measure your actual bar to know what you really have.
My "Sport Suspension" on my 2011 R-56 MCS came with an 18.6mm rear bar.

Urethan Bushings kit - Recommendation
Would it be possible for you to compile a Urethane bushings kit together for improving steering responses, suspensions, sway bar, end link, etc. instead of OEM bushings.
Having delt with Urethane bushings before on other cars, I'll never use them again. Rubber bushings are totally maintenance free with no creaking or greasing.
Any ideas...
I finally found out the part number for the 18.5mm JCW rear bar is
33556782723 and it uses the same bushings as the 18mm bar from a car with the sports suspension. The bushing part number is 33556772788.
If anyone is interested
www.minipartsmass.com has the rear bar for $102.
The part numbers are very difficult to find on realoem because they are listed under the "Front Axle Accessories and Retrofittings"
