Yes, that is true. It depends on what your RV needs and your rim width. I run max pressure to compensate for the softer sidewall. Even running max pressure, the ride is softer than steel. On a 28 foot coach, it probably doesn't handle that bad to begin with.
Of course if you wanted to, you could go to a 17 inch wheel. It would give you several improvements. You would loose unsprung weight, both in switching to an aluminum rim, as well a a nylon tire is lighter. Softer sidewall would improve ride, 17 inch would improve handling. All it takes is dollars.
