Default 22" 285/35/22 tire weight level

So i know a lot of you i'm seeing, including myself have this size tire on your cayenne. 285/35/22. And so far, i've had no problems... the drive is great, size looks good... but everyone i speak to say this is not recommended because this size tire does not hold the proper weight for cayenne S. Currently on my second set of tires in this size, is there anything i should worry about? any weight concerns.. is it dangerous? can any damage be done? I know almost everything aftermarket that is done won't be "recommended" by factory, but for this size tire i was wondering if it would be ok to keep on my cayenne. thanks you guys!!

Did you look at the link I provided in the other thread? The tire you're referring to has a XL load rating rated at 2094 lbs. I looked at a couple of the "Porsche N Spec" tires and both of them are XL and 20xx load rating.

Why the concern?

I did.. this posting probably wasn't neccessary, but i even mentioned it to everyone with the concern that this is XL.. yet people are saying not the right tire for it.. esp the idiots at discount tire. said tire is 106w, cayenne needs 109.. my conclusion is they are idiots. they didn't even know it was XL and they carried the tire at their store.
