LT tires have a stronger bead design, a stronger casing, and different rubber compounds. It’s not just about the pressure.
They have all that to be able to handle the pressure. The pressure and amount of area that it pushes on is what holds the load. There's a lot to it because of temperature control and wear but how much area of the tire is on the ground times how much air pressure you have in the tire is how much the tire will hold off the ground.
