All of the Class III hitches we carry for the 2015 Acura RDX will be pretty low profile. Basically all you would see is the hitch opening right underneath you rear bumper.

The most popular option we carry is the Curt hitch part # C13130. This hitch has a 600 lb tongue weight rating and a 4,000 lb total trailer weight rating so it should do a great job for towing your trailer.

Since you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.

For trailer wiring you would want the part # 56008.
