Unless you need the load carrying capability of the 295/80R-22.5, I would stick to a normal 11R-22.5.  The 295/80 will be hard to find if you have a problem-11R is a very popular size.  The most important aspect to ride quality is tire pressure. Weigh your bus by axle and that will tell you how big of a tire you need and the pressure you should run it at.  Don't ever just run the tire at the maximum tire pressure listed on the side of the tire-it will ride like a fork lift, get worse tire wear and your traction will be less then ideal. Good Luck, TomC
