Surprisingly, Vredestein did answer my inquiry about load ratings though, unsurprisingly, it dodged the key part of my inquiry about rolling resistance and the effects of presumably added weight and rigidity. Here was the response.

"Yes, the 94-load index is higher then the 91, so you are exceeding the manufacturers specifications.
We state that you must meet or exceed the manufacturers requirements.
You will run the same tire PSI that the manufacturer recommends with the 94-load index as you would with the 91."

So, I think I've milked this topic for all it's worth! Thanks everyone!
