I have been quoted $2200.00 for 6 new Michelin XRV 235/80R/22.5 tires load range G for my MCC!
Is this a good price?
Is there a better?
What other brand tires are availabe?
What would be the price for them/it?

The Goodyears on my Breakaway cost way more than that and not even radials. On the other hand, Goodyear has excellent tires engineered for motorhomes. So, the price of tires Intended for trucks might be irrelevant. Hankook tires get remarkably good reviews. I understand they are neither cheap nor inexpensive.

There are MANY available tire brands available in 22.5 RV sizes. I can't comment from experience (because my rig doesn't have that size), just from what I've read from other RVers. A good comparison site to check is www.tirerack.com where you can search by size and see all the brands/prices available. A local tire place might match the Tire Rack price if they want your business, or you can have the tires shipped to the installation shop of your choice to be mounted.

The Tire Review site was interesting. I was unsuccessful if finding any more recent Brands Study than 2007.

On both charts, it is interesting to note that several of the tires that make the most money for the dealer are at the bottom of the quality chart.
