According to the product specialist

Pros
These mid-height Fulcrum Racing 4 wheels offer more rigidity than the Fulcrum Racing 3 wheels.
Good power transmission thanks to the high flange and shorter spokes in the rear wheel.
Reduced risk of spoke fractures or blows in the wheels and therefore suitable for heavier riders with power in the legs.
The rim width of 17 mm makes it possible to fit tires of 25 mm or wider for more comfort.
The 35 mm high rim and flat spokes give you an aerodynamic advantage and increased stability in crosswinds.
The ideal choice if you are not familiar with carbon wheels: thanks to the 30 day money back guarantee you can try them out without any obligation.
Thanks to the aluminium braking edges on these carbon wheels you always have good braking power, even in wet weather.
The aerodynamic U-shaped rims are not wind sensitive and will keep your bike up to speed more easily.
These wheels do not have a maximum rider weight, so they can take a beating and handle heavier or stronger riders well.
Tubeless Ready (TLR) rims allow for quick conversion to a tubeless setup. If you do get a puncture, the hole is immediately filled by the latex in the tyre.
The low weight of 1595 grams offers numerous advantages, such as easier acceleration after a turn and faster uphill riding.
Excellent all-round wheelset because of their balance between rigidity, weight, and rim depth.
Good power transfer thanks to the G3 spoke pattern, the high flange and shorter spokes in the rear wheel.
These wheels are very popular because of their extremely interesting price/performance ratio and are the counterpart to the Fulcrum Racing 3 at a more interesting price level.
Multi-purpose from training to racing, both in hilly terrain and on flat roads.
Cons
The weight, on the other hand, is slightly higher compared to the Fulcrum Racing 3.
Not suitable for tubeless riding.
Not a full carbon wheel, but rather an aluminium wheel with a carbon cover to enhance the aerodynamics.
The larger distance between the individual spokes makes it harder to true the wheel.
