I don't know about the Falken 4wd tyre but after having a set of their performance tyres on my XR6 Turbo I'd never buy Falken again.

No decent grip in the dry and they were like driving on ice as soon as it was wet.

I got stuck at a set of lights on a steep hill at Bondi once with a Highway Patrol car behind me. Couldn't go anywhere due to the lack of grip, I ended up flooring it and spinning the tyres up the hill until they gripped. The Coppers behind understood what was happening and were pissing themselves laughing.

Swapped them for a set of Kumhos and were so impressed I put the same ones on my FPV GT Falcon.
