It depends on which 5er model you have and how tightly you want to turn. We all know that 90 degrees isn't good for the axles but most newer 5ers still turn 75-80 degrees or more with a short box.
With my Andersen Hitch the ball is directly over the axle and I can turn very sharply. I haven't measured it but I also haven't come so close to the cab that I was uncomfortable. I would guess that I can turn 80 degrees with mine. Haven't needed to turn that tightly yet...
I just know that I have to pay attention
