"Rocky Mountain All Terrain" Tires - Discount Tire House Brand

Hi all -

I have searched and haven't found much on these tires. (Maybe the search doesn't work because "all terrain" and "rocky mountain" gets used a lot of other places...)

I took a chance on the Discount Tire house-brand tires. They're called "All Terrain" and the brand is "Rocky Mountain" - a Discount Tire house-brand.

I have these installed on our 2004 4Runner in a Standard Load (SL) 265/70/17.

PROS
  • Price is great at about $120/each at the time of my purchase
  • Made in USA (maybe why they're cheaper? No import tax?)
  • 50,000mi treadwear warranty
  • Light Weight - 39lbs/each (good for my use-case)
  • Low Noise on Highway (quieter than my 70% worn out Hankook Dynapros, anyways)
  • Good tread

CONS (or unknowns)
  • None, really so far.
  • Not sure who actually manufactures these tires.
  • I have no data on how well they handle snow. I have snow tires I run in the winter, but I'll try to take these out snow-wheeling this year to get a data point.


Just posting for a reference if anyone else is looking at getting them. I'm not looking for a debate on LT vs standard load tires for off-roading

Cheers.

After reading some reviews from a Tacoma subreddit it seems people seem to like these for the price.
I couldn't find a mention of someone running them past 5k miles so longevity is still to be determined but for a budget tire I think these shouldn't be a bad choice.

a name brand with good reviews should still be the way to go but I wouldn't rule the Rocky Mountains out entirely.

They are manufactured by GITI, a Singapore based global tire manufacturer with a plant in Chester, South Carolina.

Discount tire brand

I would not be concerned as usually tire manufacturing companies produce tire products for many brands. So it is likely well made.
As mentioned wear will tell if these were a good value.
Personally I would not select such a tire when tire blow out failure could cause an accident.
Remember the First Gen Ford Explorer tire blow outs from delaminating tires.
I often drive at speed on hot summer highways with steep road shoulders and ditches. I visually inspect my tires every gas stop. I use name brand tires for peace of mind.

@paulforeman02

Really interested to hear updated review thoughts, especially regarding snow and ice performance.

I'm also in Colorado. I've had Kumho Crugen HT51 (A Michelin Defender LTX MS clone) on my rig for 6 years and 30k miles and have used about 30-50% of the usable tread. The tires have served me well, including shockingly and unexpected good and durable offroad use, but are aging out. I've got Michelin Winter tires for (shocker) winter use, but am looking for a May - November AT tire that can also handle snow and ice reasonably well.

Other options I'm looking at are Nokian Outpost nAT and Firestone Destination AT2. The FDAT2's recently scored as one of the best all-around AT tires, and they're impressively light. The NOnAT's are also likely awesome all-around tires, with really good winter performance, but are notably heavier.

I just discovered these Rocky Mountain AT's, and am blown away at the opportunity to save >$500 on 5 tires, but am really struggling to find more reviews.

Howdy -

No snow data for you - I have a 2nd set of wheels and tires that I run in the winter (Bridgestone Blizzaks, which are bomb in the snow) and I put them on before the snow storm last week.

Nokian makes good snow tires. I have Nokian snow tires on my BMW 335xi and although they only have about 40% tread left, they're still better in snow than my brand-new Continental all-seasons.

I also have an old Nissan Frontier with Nokian Rotivas (all-terrain, now discontinued) that are 12 years old, about 60% tread, and although they're not a dedicated snow tire, they're great in the snow. Took on this last storm like it was nothing.

Nokian seems to specialize in snow performance, so if you're going to run something all year, I bet they'd be a good option, even if it's not a dedicated snow tire.
