Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2005 BMW 325i
Published 10/08/2015
Question:
Hi, Im shopping for a hitch for a 2005 BMW 325i, and all I find is some hitch that bolts to the spare tire tub. What is the reason you dont make it like the one you do for a 2006+ BMW 325i ? That bolts to the bumper mounting points. You would sell a good amount because there are tons of guys on the internet that complain there are no good solutions for that car. Thanks,

Expert Reply:
The only hitch we offer for your 2005 BMW 325i is the Curt part # C11174 which bolts to the bottom of the reinforced spare tire container. It is the only style hitch available because there just isn't anywhere else that a hitch could be easily attached to.
I attached an install video for you to check out as well.
