Whenever available we recommend going with a 2 inch hitch like the Draw Tite part # 75836 that is a fit for your 2017 Hyundai Tucson. This will have more than enough capacity and since it's the most popular hitch size will have the most accessories made for it. I attached and install video for this hitch for you to check out as well. For trailer wiring you'd then want the part # 118501 which is also a confirmed fit.

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.
