TAM A320 has a MLW of 64.500kg, and it is NOT unusual to land at CGH near that weight. I am not sure, but I think that there is no landing restriction on 35L / 17R even when wet (allowed weight is limited by MLW).
Passenger view of landing in CGH

Pilot view...notice that the pilot vacates the runway at the last way out, after landing relatively short

Interesting one...B 737 landing at 17R...notice the "glide slope...glide slope" and the PAPI 4 red lights
