Yeah, that's some major BS. If a variation in tread wear damaged Quattro, why in the hell would Audi include spare tires? Obviously the wear on the spare would differ from what's already on the car. There would be f'd up Audis lining the side of the roads if this were the case.
Just my 2 cents. I know,anything I say isprobably only worth half that.

well, just to let you know, i have run all kinds of tire/wheel setups on mmy a4 when i have needed to "limp" home. and have never had a problem with my drivetrain. its almost certainly a misalignment problem. dont sweat it.

RE: calling bullsh**!
so then I should still be alright with buying the one tire, especially since the other three are all fairly new and have plenty of tread left on them. The one that is the problem is the oldest tire on the car and has not been changed out as of yet. All the others were changed out due to warrenty issues. There is no alignment problems that I am aware of. I believe that everything will be ok. Also if there has been no damage as of yet with the one tire being much older than the rest, I'm sure it will be fine from with the new one.

You do know that a spare is a temp tire right?
