Re: 185 Low Boy
Wide turf Tires, or the narrower aggs or turfs?
side rails on trailer or Flat deck?
Narrow tires and no rails it should fit.

Re: 185 Low Boy
Yes, it will fit, even with the wide tires. The wide turf tires are not as wide as a Woods 59 mower, obviously, around 60-inches or 5-feet wide. If you do not have the mower deck on it, the turf tires are only about 50-inches wide. Lenghth should be right at 8-feet, as I know I've hauled two lo-boys on a 16-foot trailer.
If you do have the mower deck on it, it will not fit between the rails on a 5-foot trailer. The mower deck cut is 59-inches, but the actual deck is more like 63-inches.

Re: 185 Low Boy
GitTractorMan is right on.
My 184 with the wide tires, chains, and wheel spacers rub both siderails on a 5 x 8 trailer.
The 3160a mower deck will not fit on the trailer while mounted because of the trailer siderails.
My opinion (from experience) is that a 5 x 8 is not really a "big enough" trailer as there is no room to adjust the load or to bring along attachments. With the front tires kissing the front of the trailer, the 3-point hitch sticks out behind the trailer loading ramps.
