What exactly is "Sports Suspension Settings Plus"?

2002 R50.

Looking at a VIN decoder and "Sports Suspension Settings Plus" came up as one of the factory installed options on my car. Any idea what this means? Specifically - is my rear sway bar 16mm or 17mm? (I know I can measure - but I'm stuck in an office all day and want to order some new rear sway bar bushings online... )

The damper and springs are slightly (supposedly) stiffer and the rear bar should be 17 mm. It may just be the rear bar that is different though. I have no confirmation on the spring rates and damper rates.
