Tire side wall cut question

Leaving on road trip tomorrow early am. No one has one of these until the week. How bad is this. These are new Michelin Defender LTX

Not good. I would just get that tire changed with another brand. I’m always afraid of blow outs . I know it sucks to by a tire but, Never know what can happen. Your life or another is not worth just an extra two to three hundred bucks.

Had a blow out at 75 in my work van.
Didn't wreck or loose control, but the chunks/strips spinning around pretty much totaled my van.by the time I got pulled over
