For your 2017 Lexus RX350, I recommend the Curt # C13272. This receiver has a 600 lb TW and 4000 lb towing capacity. Then if you use a weight distribution system, this increases to 5000 lb towing capacity.
For your tow wiring, I recommend # 118255. This is custom designed to fit your vehicle without splicing into the factory wires. You just plug it in and you are ready to go. This harness will work with a trailer or other lighted accessory.
If you will be towing, I recommend the B&W Tow & Stow 2-Ball Mount # BWTS10035B. This will give you a 2 inch and 1-7/8 inch hitch ball as well as give you adjustability to tow a trailer level by offering the 1 inch height adjustments between a 3 inch drop and 3-1/2 inch rise. This ball mount also offers the ability to hide the ball on the backside when not in use to give you a clean look and save your shins when loading cargo into your trunk. I recommend using a hitch lock like # BX8858 to protect your investment.
