No, an M with the wheels dished out is just too wide no matter what size tires are on it. My M with 13.6-38's is too wide for my trailer which is 83 1/2 inches wide inside the fenders. I load it front first and slide off the left rear wheel and turn it around(using a good 5 T. jack and blocks on level ground)then turn it back when I get to my destination. Tires aren't loaded and only one wheel weight is used so it isn't too bad a job, you learn to be very careful handling those wheels. This M weighs about 5400 lbs. which I haul quite easily on my 7000 lb. Carson trailer pulled by a F 250 Ford pickup. I hauled my John Deere GW from northern California to Michigan with this rig and had no trouble. The GW weighs 6100 lbs., I load it with about 400 lbs tongue weight, making sure the single axle electric brakes always work and your load is securely chained down. You must pay attention to your driving when driving any loaded rig and never allow yourself to "goof off". Never get in a hurry or take chances, and always be looking far ahead for things that might require you to stop.
