Good to know.

As a general rule of thumb, sway bars should be upgraded together. Another words, if you increase the rear, the front should be also.

The idea is to have balanced roll resistance front and rear. Adding just a larger rear bar can often create undesirable handling characteristics, sometimes dangerous. It is one thing to have excellent, firm cranked-on hard handling in the dry, but that same setup in the wet can be a nightmare waiting to happen.

Increasing just the rear bar will add greater rear roll resistance but also reduce the built-in forgiving handling traits of all Mercedes-Benz (tad bit of under-steer).

Often simply experimenting with tire pressures can enhance minor handling characteristics.
