We have the same tires on a 24-1/2 foot, 2002, E350 Minnie. Unfortunately, our E350 is a 157 inch wheel base. So, we have a long rear end beyond the rear axle. The rear end acts like a wind sail in cross winds. Not good. I think Minnie Winnies are longer than Minnies??? You may have even more wind sail effect.

I agree with the other posts that you don't want to over inflate your tires.
