Good pics BTW.
At parking lot speeds there is a HUGE difference with Active Steering. I drove an M Sport with 20s and standard steering. It felt quite heavy to maneuver for parking with lots of steering wheel turns. With Active Steering (albeit mine has 19s), parking lots are a breeze. On the road it feels fine. It's hard to say what the difference in road feel is. But so far I'm really glad I have it.

I agree, I think the 20"s are much sharper than the 19"s. I can't wait to get mine. I just ordered mine last Thursday.
