Classical symphonies - too low?

Manny, I've read that some Classical symphonies written by Mozart involve range that would be part of the pedal tone on our present Bb trumpet. I've also read that these parts double up with timpanis and it's good to play them an octave up but I've also read experiences of people playing them as pedal tones. How would you play these notes? Thank you.
