The best option for a trailer hitch receiver for your 2022 BMW X3 xDrive30 to carry bike racks is from Curt:

- Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13387

The reason I like the Curt # C13387 the most for your '22 BMW is because compared to the other hitches that fit your X3, it has better bumper and ground clearance than the similar Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 76226, and is a much more economical option that will serve the same function as the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH46FR.

This hitch has a 2" receiver so you'll need a bike rack that will fit that size receiver, such as the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 # SH22G.
