check your owners manual:

From the 2001 B5 owner’s manual (for quattro cars):

“All four wheels must always have the same rolling radius. Different tires on the front and rear wheels may impair vehicle control and will damage the All Wheel Drive because of the constantly different wheel speeds. The proper function of the system is not affected by unevenly worn tires.” (page 177)
