I've wondered about this too. My trailer deck is 80" wide, and has a raised perimeter of about 3". I was thinking I could take 2"x10" boards and fill up that 3" gap around the deck, and drive up over the fenders. I don't know if the fenders will take the weight though.

MT/R's around here are $100 per tire at 90% tread!

I would like to know where I can get those inexpensive tires.

Success! My 81.5" wide between the fenders rental trailer fit the M1123 perfectly. Low pressure in the tires allowed it to morph well enough to fit. The trailer had no sharp edges except for a weld area on the inside of the fenders, but I lubed it all up with dish soap just to be sure.
