Another tyre question

Hi....just wondered if this is normal....

I have a 2009 x5 MSPORT with the tyre sizes.......Rear..285/45/19    Front..255/50/19.

They are Bridgestone run flats which I intend to change to NON run flats when they've had it.

Now I just looked at the load markings, and the rears are 111w but the fronts are 107w

I just thought they should both be either 111 or 107.

Any advice appreciated

Mine are the same on 20" Dunlops.  I just assumed it was because of the different profiles.
