For your 2017 BWW 430i xDrive convertible we have the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Class I - 1-1/4" # C11367 but we don't have any trunk mounted bike rack options. With this hidden crossbar trailer hitch you can use a hitch mounted bike rack compatible with a Class I hitch. I recommend the use of stability strap # 18050 as outlined in the installation instructions for additional support.
For a bike rack, the best and easiest to install bike rack is the Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202 which... view full answer...
Yes the RockyMounts Solo # RKY10007 that you referenced would fit and work great in the Class II hitch you have installed in your 2014 BMW 4 Series. view full answer...
The trunk mount rack I recommend for your 2021/2022 BMW 430i Coupe is the Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack # Y02634 because it's one of the easiest racks to install/use and the quality is top-notch as well. The best way to help prevent damage to your vehicle while using a trunk mount rack is to always have a clean surface you're working with, be sure not to exceed the 35 lb per bike weight capacity, and only have the rack installed as you need to use it - remove it when it's not in use.

For trailer wiring that is a confirmed fit for a 2016 BMW 435 and 335 Gran Coupe we have the ZCI kit part # 119250KIT that is a confirmed fit. This is a universal style install kit, but instead of requiring hardwire connections the kit uses sensors instead that wrap around the taillight wiring of the vehicle. view full answer...
For your 2015 BMW 428i Gran Coupe, I recommend the Thule CG9 tire chains # TH00023100. They are easy to install as they automatically tighten and align as you drive. The built-in icebreakers provide superior grip and traction and the anti-scratch nylon bumpers will provide you great rim protection. The quick-release system is great because you can easily release the tension by pulling a lever.
Please be sure to check your Owners Manual for specific information on the use of tire chains.... view full answer...
The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11367 is a great option for a 2018 BMW 4 Series. In order to complete your towing setup you'll also need a trailer wiring harness and a ball mount/hitch ball. For the wiring harness, I recommend the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness part # 119250KIT which is a clamp-on, no splice option. Then for the ball mount and hitch ball; I recommend the Curt Drawbar part # C45521, Curt Pin and Clip part # F-4, and Draw-Tite Hitch Ball part # 19258. view full answer...
We do have one potential option for you, but I am sorry to say that there is not an aftermarket hitch available for the 2023 BMW 4 Series 440 Convertible. Nor are there any trunk mount bike racks that will fit. Considering the design of the rear of the vehicle, and with it being a convertible, there would be no way to securely and safely mount a hitch or trunk rack.
The only option that could potentially work is the SeaSucker Komodo # 298-BK1910-BK. This uses vacuum cups and can be attached... view full answer...
We have a hitch that fits your 2014 BMW 435i we have the Curt hitch part # C11367 as a fit but we do not have a hitch that fits the other vehicle since it's a convertible.
Curt requires the use of their stabilizer strap part # 18050 when using their hitch to carry a non-supported load like a bike rack. I attached a review video for you to check for the strap as well. view full answer...
Yes! For your 2016 BMW 428i xDrive Gran Coupe I do recommend Curt trailer hitch # C11367. This is a Class I trailer hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver.
If you want to use the hitch for an accessory such as a bike rack or cargo carrier then you have to make sure the accessory is rated for use with a Class I trailer hitch. Also, with a bike rack, you are limited to 2 bikes maximum on a Class I hitch.
Curt also says you have to use stabilization strap # 18050 when using this hitch for any... view full answer...
Your only option would be a bag like the Rightline Range 3 # RL100R30 and use the car clips # RL100600 to secure it to your roof by connecting the clips to your door jambs. view full answer...
The Saris Bones 2 Bike Carrier # SA805BL referenced in your question is confirmed to fit your 2017 BMW 430i Gran Coupe. For this vehicle, you will just need to add the Saris Hatch Huggers # SA3035 to replace the top hooks on the Carrier.
This carrier can hold up to 2 bikes at 35 pounds each. If you plan on carrying any woman's, children's or alternative frame bikes, you may need to use an adapter bar like the Swagman # 64005. This will provide a horizontal mounting point for level transport.... view full answer...
A class I hitch typically has a 2,000 lb trailer weight capacity with tongue weight up to 200 lbs. If your trailer totally loaded is right at 1,400 lbs then a Class I hitch would be more than adequate.
For the 2016 BMW 428i Gran Coupe the Curt hitch part # C11367 is a confirmed fit with the capacities I mentioned so it would work well. You would need to check the owners manual of your vehicle to determine it's towing capacities and be sure not to exceed those either.

We have a great hitch for you!
It's the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver, part # SH84VR. It has a maximum tongue weight of 350 pounds. It requires several pieces of the vehicle to be removed for installation (as you can see in the video I linked to below), but nothing needs to be cut or modified. If you want to tow a trailer with this hitch at some point, you will need the towing kit for it, part # 391CONVA7.
As for the bike rack, I recommend the Swagman Chinook, part # S64683. It... view full answer...
For the 2015 BMW 482i xDrive the Curt hitch part # C11367 has been confirmed as a fit and would work well.
For trailer wiring the Zero Contact Harness part # 119250KIT and # 118151 would be the only option we have. For a ball mount you would want part # C45521 and then for a hitch ball # A-82 for a 2 inch ball and part # A-80 for a 1-7/8 inch ball. view full answer...
For your 2015 BMW 435i convertible, the Yakima Rack and Roll # Y08106 is an excellent option and my personal preference. I believe it is made better for the application and it won't limit your speed as the tires are rated for the posted road speeds. You may however want to consider the alternative options of the Malone MicroSport Trailer 13 foot # MPG460G with saddle carrier # MPG110MD. You will be restricted to 65 mph with this trailer due to the trailer tire rating.

The Saris Bones Hitch 3 Bike Rack, Part # SA883, is an good choice for the BMW 3-Series. It is capable of holding less than 3 bikes. Given that the BMW 3-Series only has Class I hitches, if you go this route, I would recommend keeping the bikes in the closest two positions to the rack to decrease the amount of stress put on the shank of the rack. A third bike will cause leverage to be applied to the shank and make it bend, damaging the rack.
If you'd rather not take the risk, I'd recommend... view full answer...
We have two hitches available that will fit your 2018 BMW 440ix Gran Coupe. I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11367. This Class I hitch has a 1-1/4" receiver and a concealed cross tube.. It has maximum tongue weight of 200 lbs for your accessories and a bolt-on installation.
If you need a 2" receiver, your only option is the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH84VR. This hitch has a maximum tongue weight of 350 lbs and can be used for towing with the optional towing kit... view full answer...
Curt trailer hitch # C11367 is a fit for your 2015 BMW 4-series convertible. This is a Class I trailer hitch so you will need a bike rack that is compatible with a Class I hitch. I recommend the Swagman Trailhead # S63365 because it weighs under 30 pounds so it is easy to handle and won't put excessive stress on the hitch when loaded with bikes. And because it holds the bikes at the wheels it is compatible with many bike styles.

For your 2015 BMW 4 Series I like the Hollywood Racks Expedition 2 Bike Carrier, part # HRF6-2.
It's confirmed to fit the convertible model and it's easier to install than a lot of trunk mounted racks. It can carry 2 bikes up to 35 pounds each which should be plenty for your road bikes.
If either of your bikes are women's or children's bikes, or if they just don't have the horizontal top tube like a traditional men's bike does you might need an adapter bar like part # 64005. It creates... view full answer...
