It cannot be done. You can only disable all of them or nothing in your case.

Fronts can only be enabled if rears are.
Options are rears, rear and fronts, rear front and sides.

You will need forscan if you decide to
You want to disable all sensors.

I dont have a factory tow bar but are the rear sensors disabled when towing and if so is there a way to trick the car into thinking its towing and therefore disable rears?

Not unless you have the factory trailer control module. Is it installed under the passenger seat?
