Default Tire warranty 275/60r20 vs 275/65r20

So I've searched and couldn't find anything that was relative. I'm sure it's been discussed before.

I'll be needing new tires in about 6 months and I've pretty much decided that I want the nitto terra grapplers. I was all set that I was going to get the 275/65r20. I felt like it would be enough tire(I really hate the stock look). Except now, the warranties are different. Why is that?

275/60r20=65,000 mile tread warranty(pretty good)
275/65r20=50,000 mile tread warranty(kind of average)

I would just go with the 60s but I really don't think they look as nice.

Are they classified as different tires? Is one a higher load level? just throwing something out there?

The 275/60/20 is a P-rated tire.
The 275/65/20 is a LT-rated tire in Load Range E.

Typically LT tires do not carry the same treadwear warranties because they are mounted on heavier vehicles.

They made the terra grappler in a D rated, look into that
