If so it's 10mm because they take 100mm nuts with 17mm heads as that's what I used when replacing my drop links
If you're on about the adjustable part then I'm not sure.

Not to confuse things, but an OEM drop link has a M10 coarse thread, and therefore would take a 14mm headed nut (Japanese) or a 15mm nut. (ISO - European)
If we're not talking about the OEM links, then you may get some nuts which don't have a conventional head size, but the thread must still be 10mm diameter.

WOW.. haha
Yep thats confused me! I have posted the Eibach anti roll bar I have just purchased below
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Eibach-Ant...#ht_1037wt_905
So i know which anti roll bar and I know they are front 65-75mm and rear is 90-115mm overall length. The only thing I dont know is what the bolt diameter is??? it must be 10mm or 12mm? as thats all they stock and i would guess its must be one of these!!
Someone must know!

The standard head (and nut) diameter for a M10x1.5mm coarse bolt is 17mm so if you purchase nuts to fit the droplinks from a fastner supplier they will be 17mm.
