The load rating for the triton SHOULD be somewhere on the vehicle, ie; the drivers door frame, on a yellow sticker.
As for are 31x10.5x15 tyres, they will fit very nicely on 15x7 rims. As for being legal or not, it depends on what sie tyre came standard on the vehicle.
I recently took Mrs Ds paj down for a roady check, and the guy made me come home and change tyres before he would even look at it.
I normally run 31x10.5x15 ATs on my old hilux 15x7 sunnys. I had to put the stock paj rims/tyres back on, 235/75x15 on 15x5.5 mitsu rims.
The paj passed its test easily, and when I came home, I put the 31s back on.
From memory, going from the stock tyres to the 31s, gave an instant 2 inch lift. I judged the lift by the rubber strip that hangs on the ground, anti static strip or something.(stock tyres, the strip has about an inch on the ground, with the 31s, the strip is about an inch and a half off the ground).

Hope this helps.
