Default Body roll, under steer, HELP!

I have a C6 with a wide body front and back all OEM panels with Bilstein Shocks on 335/25/20 rears and 285/30/19 front.
I am getting some body roll since i am on the stock C6 sway bars and links. Does anybody have anything that could solve such under steer or body roll? I was thinking that just some thicker sway bars will do the trick but what do i know...

If anybody can point me in the right direction i will truly appreciate it.
Also looking for the parts so if there is anything that you have that can help and is a good deal not to pass let me know

Thank you!

Stiffer rear sway bar = less understeer. Swaybars are cheap and easy to replace. No firsthand experience but I think I would check into Z06 front and rear as a start.

My suggestion: go to a road racing shop that knows Corvettes.

I bought these to replace the stock sways on my 08 vert. Made a huge difference in eliminating body roll and general wallowing. Cultrag is a highly respected forum vendor.

You need to talk to Gene at Cultrag and tell him what size wheels and tires you got on front and back and he'll tell you the sway bars that you actually need
