I have seen the M369s in person but, perhaps due to their design, they appear smaller than the standard OEM 18" wheels. Would you say that the Sportlines 18"s have the same or greater visual impact as the M369 19"s, in that they give the illusion of filling the wheel arches better?
Hmm.. I would say the M369's definitely look bigger in person then these 18" CSL's any way you look at it, but these do look very well proportioned to the look of the car, and being a winter setup I much prefer the increased tire sidewall. Purely from an aesthetic perspective my ideal combo would be 19" CSL wheels.
