Not the Rocky Mountain's, but similar. I purchased a set of the Falken High Country's for my Tundra back in Feb. They now have approx. 5k on them and look like they have 25k on them. They have worn quicker than any tire I have ever owned. 90% highway, 10% in town driving, no towing, no off-road. The dealer I purchased them from won't stand behind them either. Truck has been inspected by a professional shop, with no issues.

These will be the last set of Falken's I will EVER own.

I looked at this tire for my Explorer before I ordered the Michelin LTX AT2.

nukeman,
Very disturbed by you bad experience. First of all, I would like to understand which of our dealers you purchased the tires from. Failure to stand behind our product is completely unacceptable.

If they are unwilling to help you, I would be happy to refer you to another authorized Falken dealer.

The High Country A/T carries a 50,000 mile warranty.

If you would like to PM me the specifics I would be happy to help you resolve the situation.

Thank you,
Andrew

I have the wild peak ats. I love them great performance and no road noise.
Just curious but what's the difference between the wild peaks and rocky mountains they look pretty similar to me.

We love our falkens. I shopped about 20 tires and falken and discount tire was the place and the products for us. Service was great, and falken stands behind the tires. I am sure I'll never but anything but these on the jeep.

Default Love the Rocky Mountains

I bought a set of 35's (34 inches mounted) Rocky Mountains and could NOT be happier. They are great on road, quiet and smooth. I have them aired down to 30 PSI (which as far as my TPMS lets me go.... need to fix that still) and have no complaints. The dealer said they would be great at 26-28 PSI, but again, I need to address that.

But off road they are darned good as well. I have not taken them in mud, but hill climbing, hard pack Texas dirt and some rocks, they are great!

I have had Falken tires on my other cars in the past and think they were also good tires. They wear well, quiet and had the performance that I expected. In fact, I am looking a HT tire of Falkens for my Navigator.

They offer great value and performance that will surpass your expectations!
