I have the oem automatic tow bar/hitch, I don't have the carbon diffuser, but I can snap a pic from the side so you can see how much clearance

TOW BAR? On M5? Those Screwballs at BMW don't even let you put a tow hitch on the X5M....LOL...
Waiting for photos.... How large of a trailer do you pull with the M5??? Mike

Here you go, i haven't tried driving with anything else but a trailer. I'm primarily using it to go to the recycling.
And of course I have a trailer hitch bike rack🙃

Im sorry if I misunderstood the difference between a tow bar and trailer hitch, here in Denmark (Europe) this is the common thing. I have googled a tow bar and can see there's quite a few different versions.

This might be a stupid question, but how do you get your bike rack onto this tow ball only towing option? I thought that the square receiver would be necessary? I am asking because I want a trailer hitch for my new to me F90 M5 for a hitch mounted cargo rack/box and also bike rack needs. But all I have found so far is your style, which I did not think would work.

I have a foldable bike rack which grabs around the 'ball' so it's pretty easy to dismount and put in the trunk. I found some Thule cargo box see link. They mount on top of the ball like trailer hitch
https://www.thule.com/da-DK/cargo-ca...cargo-carriers They also have this bike rack for multiple bicycles
