I'm finishing this coffee and going outside to check, you've spooked me now because I run B14's and around 50psi in the tyres
For reference, on my T32 I've got 245/45/19 (102Y) XL Dunlop Sport Max's, seem ok to me, standard fit on ABT wheels.
Is 102 not a tad under rated for a T32?
I'm a bit confused really, 102 tyres (rated to 850kg) x 4 = 3400kg, so my T32 gvw is 3200kg, doesn't that take it just under?
My wheels are definitely rated to 860kg a corner, no issues there.

It’s the actual axle load ratings that matter and your axle ratings will add up to greater than the total GVW. Your axle rating is probably something like 1720kg.
It's based on half the axle loading.
T32 axles are 1710kg and 1720kg, so 855kg front and 860kg rear.
That's why VW fit 255/45-18 103 to T32.
I've emailed ABT to confirm, if my converter has fitted incorrectly load rated wheels/tyres then they are in for a world of pain.
I'm sure you won't but don't let them fob you off.
How have you found the 50mm springs?That's encouraging to hear about the Nexen's, I'm down to see Oli at Bognor Motors to have B14'S and ARB's fitted next week to improve the ride (currently on 50mm H&R springs) so glad to know I should be good on wear on the Nexen's!
I’m considering the same as you,what’s the ride comfort like. I’m a plumber so use my van for work.
