I've had coaches with 16,19.5 and 22.5. All drove well for what they are. Now, each was on a different chassis and the smaller ones (16 & 19.5) were gassers, the 22.5's diesel pusher. The chassis and the tires mounted are engineered for the application . I would not base a purchase in tire size... too many other variables come into lplay.

Personally I wouldn't worry about it. The coach will spend a lot more time with the tire stationary then rolling even if you full time in the rig. Shop floor plan first and then look at the chassis and what size the tires might be.

Blanket statements, like the one from the OP's "someone", are rarely accurate or valid.

weight is the factor here. Coaches with the smaller tires have less total weight capacity than the 22.5" tires. Normally, the 22.5" tires are on the heavier chassis's.
