I have a rcsb 06 i am planing on doing a 2/4 shackles and hangers in the back my question is will i be able to tow a car hauler with a car max of maybe at the very most 6500 lbs usally towing a camaro that weights 4700-5000 lbs with the trailer most of the time. My tires are 305/50/20s in the back. I am just worried the tires will get into the fenders. Thanks

Getting the tongue weight correct will also help.
I know an 03-04 Cobra is heavy, but it's also loaded too far forward, which surely doesn't help with rear end squat.
Here's another heavyweight car loaded on a heavy steel trailer, but with tongue weight correct (at 500# or so) and as you can see, even with bone stock 150,000 mile suspension it rides nearly stock. A trailer/truck combo is meant to pull, not necessarily carry. Hope this helps...

Cobra was up due to the straps on that shitty uhaul trailor. I also had a 7" drop hitch upside down just to help out but I did need helper bags to tow. As of now the truck drop 8" out back so I'm glad I aint gotta tow my freinds **** anymore lol
