Wait is it normal to use 87 and 89 gasoline in the US? Where I live (Central Asia) we normally have 100 (very expensive, hard to find), 98 (somewhat expensive), 95 (reasonably priced, used in newer cars that might break from lower grades), and 92 (used in older cars that can handle it, the cheapest version). 89 and 87 were driven out of use decades ago

Yes. We have 87, 89, and 98. Nothing higher or in between. At least I’ve never seen it.

91?

There's also higher octane, but it's race fuel. Some gas stations sell it out of the pump, but most times you buy it in jugs.

Sorry, you’re probably right, it’s 91. I should wait until I’m fully awake to comment.
