Default Roadtrip Tire Worthyness VERY WIDE TIRES

Okay running a 335/35/17 rear and 285/40/17 front on 13" & 10" wide rims respectively.

Should I go with MPS PS2s or keep the Pirelli PZeros? Is chunking going to be an issue? I know they're horrible in rain due to the sizes but that shouldn't be an issue in July.

Any info that can help me prevent a mishap would be great! Thanks.

The width doesn't make them any more prone to chunking... they should be fine on a road trip, not sure why you think they wouldn't be roadworthy?

Just worried, ever tried going to your local tire store and casually mentioning you need a 335/35/17? I don't have room or weight allowance for a spare either...just worried a tad is all .
