[A4] Which model Falken?

[gsackerson at comcast.net]

Rocky,
  Which model Falken did you purchase? Interestingly, when I did a google search on the brand, there were a number of outlets and also a number of favorable ratings on the web site epinion.com (link below:)

Falken is a brand I'm not familiar with, but then, a tire dealer once told me some of the best brands are those that are less known, because more money on the tire purchase goes towards the tire and less towards advertising!
