Newer gas MHs have gotten too heavy for 16.5 tires without going to max pressure... poor ride. Yes a 22.5 is going to cost more but the better braking... more rubber on the road and the softer ride... less air pressure are worth the extra cost. Some use 19.5 tires when height, space, or gearing is an issue as they have a smaller diameter and only slightly less load carrying capacity.
