I personally would chose the Invo due to less tread squirm. Either tire should suit what you are looking for though.

Just some quick google reading of comparisons revealed people are preferring the nittos. People are saying the falkens traction is much worse, both when wet and when hot. Hope that helps.

I bought falkens believing the higher treadwear rating would last longer than oem. The falkens ended up lasting 20k just like oem. I don't push my car but I drive in the rain all the time and have never felt insecure in the rain. I think falkens are good tires for the money I plan to continue with falkens in the future.
