In order to mount the Yakima Big PowderHound on factory crossbars you will need to use the Universal MightyMounts for Yakima Roof Mounted Accessories part # Y03590 which will accommodate factory crossbars up to 4" wide or 1-1/2" tall. Therefore, the factory crossbars on a BMW which measure 2-1/4" wide x 1-1/2" tall will not be an issue. view full answer...
Yes, this Curt Trailer Hitch for the 2009 BMW 3 Series, part # C11033, will work on your 2009 BMW 335xi. With basic mechanical skills and access to tools you should have no problem installing this product by yourself.

I was able to find several options for trunk mounted bike racks that will fit your 2001 BMW 3-series wagon. As long as the bike rack is properly installed and you do not exceed the weight limit then you will not have to worry about the rack damaging the rear glass of the vehicle.
Since it is a concern you can stay with a 2 bike rack. If you are looking for the best, I recommend the top of the line Thule rack, the Thule Passage 2, # TH910XT, that you have referenced. The QuickBack gets... view full answer...
I wish we did, but it looks like the only base plate kit we offer for the 2003 BMW 330CI won't work on the convertible models.
The only option I could potentially recommend for you would be a tow dolly like the # RM-2050-1 as long as your owners manual says that your vehicle is able to be flat towed by a tow dolly. view full answer...
You have a choice between trunk-mount and hitch-mount 2-bike carriers for the back of your 2013 BMW 3-Series Sedan.
The linked article will give you good background on the advantages of each type. A trunk-mount rack will often be more cost-effective than a hitch plus a hitch-mount rack. However, trunk racks place the weight burden of the rack and bikes on your car's sheet metal. Hitch racks place that burden on the vehicle's frame - its strongest part - and also allow you to use other... view full answer...
The TH990XT is actually an older DoubleTrack. An easy way to tell if what you have is a DoubleTrack is by how the rack attaches to bikes. Does the rack grab the wheels or the frame for attachment? If wheels then it's a T2 TH9045. If frame, it's a DoubleTrack.
Either rack would fit your 2016 BMW 328i as long as you install the Curt hitch part # C11367 that has been confirmed as a fit. I attached an install video for you to check out as well.

I have a solution for you to transport your 45-pound e-bike. However, all of our compatible trunk bike racks for your 2020 BMW 3 Series sedan only have a maximum weight capacity of 35 pounds per bike.
With that being said, the best route is to go with a hitch-mounted bike rack. For that option, I recommend the RockyMounts HighNoon FC Solo Bike Rack for 1 Bike # RKY87RR. With the HighNoon, it has a maximum weight capacity of 60 pounds. As far as compatibility, it works with bikes with wheel... view full answer...
The trailer hitch I recommend for your 2012 BMW 328i is the Curt # C11367. This is a Class l hitch and it has a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening. I have attached an installation video for you to check out.
You will need a ball mount and a hitch ball to tow your trailer. I recommend the Sportframe Drawbar kit # 3593. This kit includes a ball mount with a 2-1/8 inch rise and 2-3/4 inch drop, and is rated for trailers that weigh up to 2,000-lbs. This kit also includes the hitch pin and clip.... view full answer...
The Curt Hitch part # C11367 is confirmed to fit your 2014 BMW 328i and is pretty lightweight as it only weighs 24 lbs. This would be an excellent choice for you. The installation isn't necessarily hard, but it would take you a couple hours most likely to complete. The cost is available below on the product link.
You will need to consult your BMW dealer for trailer wiring, but for a ball mount you could use the Curt Ball Mount part # C45521 and then # F-4 for a pin and clip and then part... view full answer...
Actually we list the 18 inch part # MCH8518 and the 24 inch # MCH8524 as a fit for the 2013 BMW 328i which I believe is where your fit issue is coming from. We don't have a way to get just the adapters from Michelin either. view full answer...
Yes, the Curt Trailer Hitch # C11174 will fit on your 2004 325xi wagon as this hitch is confirmed to fit 2004 BMW 3-series vehicles.
There is not a 2 inch hitch version of this hitch, nor is there a 2 inch hitch available for your vehicle. The reason for this is that hitches with 2 inch openings are reserved for vehicles with higher towing capacities then what your vehicle has. Check out the FAQ article I attached on hitch classifications for you to check out also.

Thule has the FastRide Roof Bike Rack part # TH95JV as a fit for factory crossbars which would be exactly what you are looking for. This attaches to the standard forks you have, and is lockable with the # TH450200.
You can use it with thru axle adapters too like the part # TH53015 as well. view full answer...
I spoke to my contact at Curt and right now the 2015 BMW 328d X-Drive is confirmed as a fit with the # C11367 that you referenced. If that is what you have then this hitch would fit and work well.
If you do have a 328id non-X-drive then right now we don't have anything tested and confirmed as a fit. view full answer...
The roof rack I recommend for your 2015 BMW 328i Wagon is the Thule WingBar Roof Rack # TH711220 with the Feet # TH710601, and Fit Kit # TH186007. This rack has an aerodynamic shape that works to minimize wind noise and drag. The black color of the AeroBlade Edge will look great with your 328i. This rack will work great to transport your bikes or your canoe.
While the roof rack is installed it is not recommended to open the sunroof if the sunroof adds any height to the roof when retracted.... view full answer...
For your 2017 BMW 328i sedan the hitch I recommend is the Curt part # C11367. It would work great for towing a small trailer and has a concealed crosstube too, which means it won't be quite as visible. You'll need trailer wiring to activate the trailer's lights. For trailer wiring I'd recommend the ZCI Kit part # 119250KIT because it does not require any splicing to install and has a very reliable converter box as well. I attached an install video for this kit for you to check out too.

The Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # RR576 sits 3-5/8" over your crossbars but there are no risers available to give it additional clearance.

The best trailer wiring harness option for a 2009 BMW 3 Series is the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness part # 119250KIT since you don't have to splice but if you don't mind doing this you can save some money using the Vehicle Wiring Harness Kit part # C59496.
The main difference between the trailer wiring harness options for this vehicle are indeed amp ratings but also what comes with like a circuit tester etc and brand. They all do the same thing though in the end. view full answer...
We don't have the ability to make custom base plate kits but for a solution to tow your BMW you could use a tow dolly like the Demco Kar Kaddy X part # DM9713093 which would be an easier overall install and would make transferring to future vehicles easy as well. view full answer...
That will depend on the vehicle style of your 2009 BMW 328i with a naked roof. If you have a 2 door or the 4-door you would want the part numbers # TH711120, # TH460R and # THKIT3039.
If you have a wagon you would want the # TH7601-TH7601 and # THKIT3028. view full answer...
For your 2011 BMW 335i X-Drive I recommend the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH44VR. This custom fit hitch will not require any drilling for mounting the receiver. This is all you will need for being able to carry a bike rack or cargo carrier type of accessory.
If you will need to pull a trailer or add some auxiliary lights you will need the Towing Kit w/ Ball Mount and Trailer Wiring for Stealth Hitches # 391CONVA7. This will include both the wiring necessary for a 4-flat trailer... view full answer...
