Hello svpr, I have been towing for 5 years with run flats on an X5. I've never altered the pressures from the standard recommended pressures and never had any issues.

What does it say on the tyre pressure label on the B Pillar.

No reference whatsoever about altering pressures when towing on mine.

No but it will usually quote a higher pressure if the vehicle is carrying a full complement of passengers plus luggage so in some cicumstances a full boot and awnings etc on the rear seat plus the caravan nose weight you could be close to the vehicles limit and pressures should be higher.
