Yep, that looks like a M172 25ton lowbed trailer with custom ramps added. The stock ramps are really HEAVY and must be manualy put in place to use. Two guys can do it, but it is a chore. To make the trailer more practical, adding some fold down ramps is recommended. Another thing to note is the overwidth dimension of these trailers. They can be successfully modified to a 102" DOT limit, if desired. Also, when pulling with a civilian tractor, the trailer is going to ride low in the front. Best suited for use with 5 ton, 10 ton, HET, etc.

I'm not sure, the trailer is not mine. If that is a problem, get different tires. What do your tires measure in stock form?

No I don't own the trailer. I found those pictures off the web and kept them for a future project. I believe the trailer was for sale in the Houston area.
