The rear mowers can be off set but it does not help much unless you have lots of clearance from limbs. I usually try to turn away from the tree at the last sec so the mower swings under the tree with out hitting it.
I usually use my lawn tractor to trim or the string trimmer. I also have a old scikle bar mower for trimming under my pines and along the road banks and ditches a couple of times a year.
If you have lots of trees ie: a christmas tree farm or orchard you might want to consider a orchard mower that is build with a 3' or so offset ....

if you have anti sway bars use them to offset the mower and you should be able to get close enough.is your mower large enough to cver your tire tracts offset?
