Anyone run Falken WildPeak/Rocky Mountain?

My first post, looks to be an awesome, busy forum:

I'm looking to make the purchase of a leveling kit and tires. Seriously considering the tires mentioned above in 275/65/20 but havent laid eyes on these tires on any 04-08 FX4's. Anyone have any pictures/seen them mounted? My only concern is they are staying with the stock tire width (dont want to ride around with pizza cutters). To step up to a 285 or 295 is starting to get out of my price range but and considering splurging. I want to stay away from BFG's but def want a nice aggressive AT tire. any comments are much appreciated and as always, pictures are nice too.

My friend has Falken WildPeak's on his 04 4WD SCREW. He loves them. I think they are a good looking tire. I think he picked up all 4 tires for a little under $800 mounted and balanced.

I have them in size 315/70/17 and so far they have been great. Affordable and work in varying terrains. Haven't had them in mud much, but zero issues in the 5000 or so miles. More pics in my album if interested.

I agree with you, I'd want a tire wider than 275mm.

The size/price options for the 20" wheels is a slight pain. i am looking for something wider than 275mm, but as soon as that happens, the price goes upwards of $350 a tire. Nitto Terra Grapplers are an option in 295/60/20 but not a huge fan of the looks.

Im outside the 04-08 window but as far as the tire itself, I've got it in 285/70R17 and they have been awesome. From a 1000 mile highway ride to playin around in the mud they have been perfect. My truck is going in to get a 6 inch RCX kit next week, and im going again with the 325/70R17. I couldn't be more pleased with the oversll performance of the tire.

this is including FL sales tax so subtract it if need be.

The only down fall of this tire is the lack of wet weather traction, once these tires get about 7/32 on them the tread blocks are pretty much slick with little to no siping
