Are the ROAD specialities still the best in medicine?

Radiology, ophthalmology, anesthesiology and dermatology.
Or are those days gone?

What do you mean by best? Salary or lifestyle?

You can probably replace Radiology with Radiation Oncology. Anesthesiology is facing encroachment by midlevel providers. Opthalmology starting salaries aren't great in desirable places. Dermatology has a great lifestyle but that type of practice is not for everyone.
There is no perfect specialty in medicine.

I know an anesthesiologist who opened a chain of weight loss clinics. Makes a shite ton of money.

Any specialist Doctor is still doing very well. The general practitioners and internal medicine and general surgeons are the ones suffering (relatively at least, it's not like they're homeless)

Given that computers will be able to interpret cross-sectional imaging studies with a high degree of efficiency and celerity within the next 10-20 years, I would advise any MS4 to elect any field other than radiology.

Emergency medicine but not to the level of a trauma surgeon
