Seriously? A 9000lb 5'er with a 1/2 ton. I tow the same weight 5'er with my 2500. My pin is 1800lbs, add my wife and I @280lbs and whatever else and were 200lbs over GVW but 1100lbs under the RAWR. Have you even checked your CC rating on the door sticker? Tires would be my 2nd issue. No way you're not over your trucks RAWR.
As far as the tires go just look on the sidewall at the Max Load at max PSI. As long as that is equal to or greater than the RAWR of the truck then they will be fine. It's the truck that's the problem though not the tires. Even P rated tires carry enough load for the trucks RAWR.
