It all been said here.... but some notes on All wheel drive....

You must really look at the manufactures instructions, especially when under warranty. They will specify the max tread depth offset. From my knowledge, the tightest tread depth offset is with Subaru... When one tire goes you just need to replace them all... It sucks I know.... but you can and will screw up the drive train of an AWD car otherwise... and all AWD will specify that the tires have to be matching for tread pattern etc.....
