In my experience with towing a Mustang to the track.
I Started with: RAM 1500, Kurt weight distribution hitch, open steel trailer = no issues weight wise, drivability or wind gusts, everything was good.
Next step was an Enclosed 24ft flat nose trailer = no issues weight wise, pulling or...

285 tires = Need Wider Wheels
Offset = distance between Mounting hub and wheel centerline (can be + or -)
You need to clear the Brembo brakes and the Suspension = Apex SM-10 19x11" ET52 = 52mm wheel offset to clear everything. But then you also need a 25mm Spacer on the hub to make up the...
