Has more to due with then just load. Helps with side wall flex on cornering.
I suppose if hauling the camper is the primary use then it could make sense, for the heavier duty front tires, mostly. (Because duallies are always about maxxed out on OE pizza cutter LT tires up front.)
But I don't see it helping much if any in back.
If you have 17" wheels, you're stuck with a chitty selection of low load index tires (cant get over a 121 load index in 17s).
Upgrading to 18s or 20s will be similar cost, though, to 19.5s, but your selection of styles and tire/rim sizes and treads will be vastly greater than 19.5s.
That said, 19.5s are the bulletproof answer, so you don't really have a question for the group. It's whether you "want" choices or the bulletproof option.
