I have had 3 sets of 208's on my 7R and I loved them. They were super sticky, but I was going through them too fast. I just put a set of Metzler M1's on and I really like them. They have plenty of grip and a better profile than the 208's. I instantly felt comfortable on them, and I'm going to put another set on when these wear out. Both the 208's and the M1's are good tires. It would depend on what kind of riding you do on which I would recommend.
