Tyre Choice for FK2 Type R - Conti Sport 7s?

Hello all,

Its time for all four corners of my FK2 OEM Wheels to have replacement tyres, and they are still the OEM Conti Sport 6s.
Standard FK2 235/35/R19 91Y.

I've seen a deal from Asda Types below showing that the new Conti Sport 7s are now available and generally at a reasonable price.

Does anyone know anything about these? Not much information, but maybe that's because they are so new???

I'm a little tired of the 6s being like cheese on wear, so I would like something more harder wearing. Maybe the 7s aren't a great upgrade in that respect, but I thought it might keep some of the original design thoughts of Honda whilst going for a newer designed tyre?

If not any other suggestions?

Thanks.

Although I don't have a Type-R any more I do run that size on my RS and the best tyre I've experience by far is the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S.
