Mine say 86T after the size figures. Is this the load index?

I got a quote of 100 pounds a piece for reinforced. That's a bit steep. Van tyres are (supposedly) not available at all in this size. There are a couple of Liteace vans around here. I'll have to sneak up and check what they are running.
At least the maximum inflation pressure is 44.
Well, now I have these tyres and unless I can complain to the tyre service that they should have known better, I'll have to use them until the next lot is due. I don't want to spend the money again now.

86T is the index, yes. If you're safe to 44psi, you're OK.
