For the Class I hitches like the Curt # C11455 that fits your 2005 Acura TSX you have to use only the recommended ball mount in the recommended rise/drop position. For your situation the recommended ball mount is the part # C45521 which you'd need to run in the rise position. This provides a rise of 2-5/8 inches.

For hitch balls you'd then want the part # A-82 for a 2 inch ball or part # A-80 for a 1-7/8 inch ball.
