What are the concerns to be resolved by going up in load range? Are the existing tires run at sidewall max pressure?

The OP has not given any more info. If the current tires are running at Max pressure, would going to a higher load range reduce needed pressure? (know I could look at inflation chart)

I know from experience putting HD tires on just 1 axle degraded the drive comfort, even after deflated to the same pressure of the other tires. Now I changed from tires rated for about 7,400 to a pair rated at 9,000 for 1 trip.

I still can't stand under why, when tires last until age out, you would want to change to higher rated/price tire
