The trailer hitch that I recommend for your 2022 Toyota Highlander Limited with the 20" spare tire is the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e75ZR. This is a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver with a matte black finish so it will blend in with your vehicle really well and hold up well to any potential scratches that might happen from road debris. This unfortunately won't fit with your 20" spare though so you'll have to find a different way to transport your spare.
