Look for specs on Mr5's 335i. I remember some threads. I think he settled on a rear swaybar that was something like 15mm because, like many others, he was getting wheel spin with anything bigger.
...edit, here it is. I remembered wrong, but notice there is a 15mm xi rear bar:

I'm not complaining though. I really like the feel and I think that it's the perfect size for the regular 335s.
I'm glad I didn't go with the 15mm XI sway because if I can feel the tires spinning a bit with this one, I could just imagine what would have happened with the 15mm.
For those who are thinking about the M3 20mm bar, I would highly encourage you not to get it, unless you like going through tires really fast and doing 180s around corners. That is, if you drive spirited like myself.
Do not start comparing our suspension with the M3's suspension because it is completely different. Yes, the M3 has a 20mm sway that is fit for the M3's suspension.
