The Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH97ZR is our only receiver confirmed to fit your 2011 BMW 528i. While this comes with a 2" receiver you can get a 1-1/4" Receiver # 391RR1 if your bike rack does not offer an adapter to fit a 2" receiver. If you ever want to be able to tow a trailer you will need the Towing Kit # 391CONVA5 which includes a ball mount and 4-way wiring. You may need this 4-way for your bike rack if you require Auxiliary Lights # C53201 due to the bikes impairing the view of your tail lights.
If you do not already have a bike rack the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack # HLY84FR fits a 2" receiver and is capable of hauling 2 bikes up to 80lbs each while only weighing 54lbs. Be sure to not exceed the GVWR for your BMW.
