For your 2017 BMW 328i the trailer hitch I recommend is the Curt # C11367. This is a class I hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening.
For a bike rack I really like the Saris SuperClamp EX part # SA4025F.
This is a platform bike rack that only touches the bike at the tires and only weighs 35 lbs. The biggest drawback to platform bike racks has always been the weight of them, but with this rack you get the best of both worlds. The preferred attachment style with the lighter weight.
