Will they fit yes. Will it be super tight yes. Will panels rub yes. Will one need to be propped up that's up to you we have done it both ways. I have a 7x29 and regularly fit a 174 a 163 a 162 and 2 153's last year. What I did was backed the 174 all the way up to the v on the right side and then backed the 163 beside it until the spindles were touching or close too I then drove a 162 up to the 174 and tucked the Ski tips under the a arms of the front 2 I then drove a 153 in until it was touching the 162 pulled both of thone rear ends out to the walls and then finally backed the other 153 in between the 2. The flap was always touching the 2 sleds and re skis had to be turned but it fit. You can put the spare tire under the last 153 if you want more room. There is room for gear in between the sleds
This is a 7.5 x 28 with a Pro 163, 3x Summit 154, and 1x 136 Rev. Personally I went with the 7.5 wide instead of the 7 because two Skuds fit side-by-side at the skis, makes it much easier and more flexible for loading, while still having the aerodynamic and sight-lines advantage.
I've got a 7' x 29' and routinely haul 5 155" sleds, all loaded from the rear. We've found the easiest way is too disconnect one tie rod end from the spindle off the first sled once on the trailer (only takes a minute) so that it can be pulled all the way forward into the vee with the skis toed in all the way. The next three sleds are pulled in staggered facing forward with the last one being backed in. Once I figured out the loading configuration I put in tie down rings in the floor so nothing moves/touches going down the road. Have found a few pieces of 2" pink foam board works great between sleds if they're close. We can load/unload easily in under 15 min.
Had a 7x29 last winter, routinely hauled 5 sleds. All 153/154. Easiest to load drive in the front and face the rear. The fourth sled in we would prop the track up on four stacked 2x4s and put the nose of the last sled barely under the tunnel of the fourth. No rubbing, no scuffs, no taking off skis or disconnecting anything. Once you get to where your going drop the ramp and drive out. Sounds complicated but was very easy to do. I had a bunch of tie downs in the trailer floor so nothing ever shifted. I'll try to dig out a photo.
Here is the photo as promised.. Drive them all in with the back door down and sticking out the back a few feet. Then once the 5th sled is in push then all as far forward into the nose as they can go.
** Correction to my other reply, the 3rd sled in is propped up so the 5th sled can go nose under a couple inches, NOT the fourth sled in.

I get 5 pro rmk /axys rmk 155's in my 7x27 legend its tight but works out good
How do you configure those? I have the same trailer.

Loading from rear First one pull right ski when in but push all way up in to v and jack rear up on 6x6 block 2,3,4 do normal stagger and pull only one ski toe (2nd other sled side) 3rd wall side 4th other wall side . 2 and 3 get lifted on 6x6 block and then the fifth load backwards sounds bad but very easy with 2 people and 3/8 cordless ratchet. 99% of time 2-3 riders and trips out west works nice can sneak em all in
