We have a video installation of the Draw-Tite Class III Max-Frame Trailer Hitch, item # 75153, on a 2007 Lexus RX350, see link, that shows the distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the farthest out part of the rear bumper at 1-1/2 inches, this leaves the receiver portion of the hitch out about 1/2 inch past the rear bumper.
The Curt Class III Hitch, item # 13530, installs flush with the farthest out part of the rear bumper, so it would be the model that extends the least distance, see video.
