The Curt Class III Trailer Hitch, item # 13354, will not interfere with the spare tire or rear fascia on your 2007 Acura MDX. You will have to lower the spare, to install the hitch, but you will replace it when the install is complete.

The Self-Locking Adjustable Aluminum Ball Mount, 2 Balls, Up to 7" Rise or 6" Drop, item # DTALBM6600, will work with the Class 3 hitch and will provide up to 7 inches rise, in one inch increments, for towing your trailer in the correct position.
