For your 2015 Nissan Titan King Cab that has a 6-1/2 foot bed it looks like your max trailer towing capacity would be 9,500 lbs like you mentioned. You'd need to go with a trailer that when loaded does not exceed this weight.
Since your truck bed is shorter than 8 feet you will need a slider hitch to allow you clearance to make tight turns. My favorite option is the Demco Hijacker AutoSlide part # DM8550034 as it slides back automatically as you make tight turns saving you the hassle of getting out and activating the slider.
For a rail kit that is custom fit for your 2015 Nissan Titan we have the Demco kit part # DM8552021-71 that is a confirmed fit. With these two you'd be set. To move the 7-way at the rear of your truck up to the truck bed to make connecting easier we have the Demco kit part # DM8555002 which is a confirmed fit as well.

To install the Curt A16 slider hitch part # C16521 you'd need the custom rail kit part # C16470-204 which is a confirmed fit for your truck.
