For daily drivers who've gone through a set of Falken Wildpeaks

I'm at about 20,000 miles on my P265/70R17 AT3/W's. There's absolutely no way these will get to 30K, they are wearing very fast. They're very loud now too. Won't be buying them again.
Well, I was right, but only just. I got exactly, 28,995 miles from my Wildpeaks. Tread was worn down to the bars and failed inspection.
That's the first and last time I'm buying Falkens.

Are these the current design or the previous design AT3W's? I had a set with the old tread style and was very disappointed in the mileage I got out of them (close to the same mileage but that was on a 275/60R20 mounted on a 2009 Silverado).

I ordered a set recently for my 4R, hoping they last longer. I went E load instead of P load, and the tread seems much different - we shall see.

Current design. I don't know much about the compounds used in P vs LT but perhaps does does make a difference? But either way, these have been the shortest lasting tires I've ever had.
 
Got the wildpeaks 30K miles ago, still have 50%+ thread left, they did get a tad louder though. Best performing wet/snow tires I've ever had.

I've read a few complaints about the longevity of these tires.

The Pmetric ATW3's have a silica component to the compound that the LT do not. It is supposed to increase treadlife, but that might be a function of how close they run to their load rating (not pressure rating).
