Lets talk about the diff between 19.5 and 22.5's on Gassers
Aside from IMO better looks what are the benefits to units with 22.5 wheels on Class A gas units? Can you convert a 19.5 set-up to 22.5's?

One downside of 22.5s not yet mentioned is wheel cut. Each year could vary, but based on the 2018 F-53 spec:
16k-20k GVWR - 19.5 wheels, 50 degree wheel cut.
22k GVWR - offers both wheel sizes: 50 Degrees–19.5 42 Degrees–22.5
24k-26k - 22.5 wheels, 50 degree wheel cut
I would suspect if you converted a 16k-22k to 22.5s you would go back to 42 degrees wheel cut. I suspect the 22k optionally puts a cut limiter of some sort on the 22.5s. If you just converted, perhaps it would scrub? Perhaps the bolt pattern conversion part would push the the wheel out an inch to match the wider track of the 24-26k chassis and you would be fine.
