86 Turbo Early Phone Dial tire combo

I'm about to start driving my car on a regular basis. It currently has 205/55 R16 on the front and 225/55 R16 on the rear.

I don't particularly like of that setup and some googling suggests a 225/50 R16 - 245/45 R16 combo on this car. I'm just not finding any samples photos of this setup online using Google/Chatgpt/etc. The results I'm getting are for other wheels or the 15" and late offset 16" phone dials.

Is anyone running these instead of the factory default?

2014 F30 No Signal on replacement dispay.

I've got a 2014 328i with the display with the glue separation issues. I bought one out of another F30 that supposedly works but I'm getting a No Signal issue.

Google is all jacked up with results of people "upgrading" to cheap Chinese head units so I'm not getting any thing useful because I'm not upgrading to something else..

I've tried holding the volume button for 30 seconds, nothing happens. I've also tried the volume plus eject and again nothing.

Do I have a bad screen or is this another bullshit BMW "safety" feature designed to force you to the dealer for an over priced re-coding and new display?

Water hose from lower radiator to water pump.

Anyone have any pointers on getting this hose on the water pump on an 86 Turbo? I bought a new hose and getting the leverage to just push it on has been a challenge. After trying to get the damn thing on for 45 minutes I cussed the Germans and hoped a miserable ending for the guy who thought the tolerances was a fun idea and took a break for a while.
