How much will driving on a different tire damage the quattro?
OK, so i hit a huge hole and destroyed on of my wheels, now Im forced to drive on the spare for a few days until I get a new wheel and tire. My current tires are 225/40/17 and the spare is 225/45/17. Ive been driving like this for 2 days and itl be atleast 3-4 more before my tire comes.
Also I currently have blizzaks on the car that were used last winter for about 3 months, will be replacing the one I damaged with a brand new one, can the slight difference in tread cause a problem? Thanks in advance.

None IMO, since you only have 3 months on the other three.
Sounds like the missing manhole cover I hit once.
Anyway, are you using OEM forged wheels?

I had aftermarkets on the car, this is the third car i bought with aftermarket wheels that got destroyed within the first few months of ownership. OEM or nothing from now on, I bought some B5 stockers for my last audi and I just bought some B6 stockers for this one. Thanks for the opinions.
Now im having a problem finding a replacement tire, tirerack stopped carrying my size.
