On a trailer it is permissible to change tire sizes provided there is enough clearance all around the old size to use the larger size. On passenger vehicles including motorhomes changing tire sizes will affect the accuracy of the speedometer so it would have to be recalibrated in addition to making sure there is enough clearance.
