Recommend new tyres for my Audi A6 Allroad?

I would value your recommendations for tyre replacements for my Audi A6 Allroad. It is on 245/40s and at present has Pirelli P Zero Rossos at the back and Dunlop Sportmaxes at the front. I find it a great car and have had no problems with it (so far!).

Switch to 17-inch wheels and fit Pirelli Scorpion 235/55 R17 tyres. It's completely daft to have 18-inch wheels with 245/40s on an Allroad.
