Sitting for years may have damaged the tires (internally). Especially if they were sitting with low air pressure. They'll look OK externally but the reinforcing cords in the rubber can take a set that may have become permanent.
Remember you can "balance" a square tire but it'll never ride smooth. If you can find a shop able to do a Road Force Balance that can give a better ride. Not sure if they can do that with motorhome size tires. Or if it's worth it. How old are the tires - read the date codes? If more than 5 - 6 years old I'd start by replacing them. 6 - 8 year old tires are about at or past their 'use-by' dates (even if the tread is not worn out).
