Higher ply tires usually gain extra carrying capacity by increasing air pressure. What are the recommended air pressures for your vehicle? How does that compare to the maximum air pressure of the car tires? I would not use the same size car tire if the recommended pressures for your vehicle are higher than the maximum pressure of the car tires.
The difference on six tires is about $400 total. If you plan to keep the motor home for more than two more years or 10,000 more miles, I"d go with the truck tires, just to have fewer things to worry about in the future. Car tires may not hurt resale value in a private sale because the buyer won"t know the difference. If you trade it in to a dealer, they will probably notice, but it may not matter to them either.
Dumb question: When (If?) dealers replace motorhome tires, do they put on truck tires or car tires. You could visit a dealer to ask, and also check what tires are on their used units, especially the units with new tires.
