What do you mean by "wear out the front-ends faster."
Do you mean the front end tires or front end components.
Well newer motorhomes the tires them selfs are much wider.
The old 7.50 -16s where a pretty narrow tire. I know newer cars with wider tires have strut and ball joint issues around 70-80,000 miles where older 90s cars standard tires can go 100,000+ without strut replacement. To give you idea I have
1978 Itasca also with 16.5 tires . 153,000 miles never had to change front ball joints . But was aligned about every 5 years
These are just my findings with my rigs I have had. I was talking wearing out front-end components.
