Nope, you can't. I asked a couple of Audi dealerships - some offered to swap the tires on arrival (at a cost). Summer tires aren't going to do well in my neck of the woods, especially if the car arrives before the end of snow season. Still considering options on that though.

I think the best bet might be to buy a separate set of wheels/tires for the winter; there are some good options on ebay. That's the route I'll probably be going - waiting to see when the delivery will happen, I'm thinking I might need it until next winter.

I've been getting by with Conti DWS for years and I love them.

Did you buy the all seasons from the dealership? How much was it?

No way would I buy through the dealership, waaaayyyy too much. Got them at Costco; another alternative that I used on a Porsche I used to have was Tire Rack - very, very competitive pricing and their service is A++. Got rims and tires from them, unpackaged them and mounted. Balanced, air, TPMS - it was almost too easy!
If I can't sell the performance, I'll just remount in the spring and wear them out - Costco offers a remounting deal where you pay a small fee to remount the tires, as long as you purchased a set from them, so I'm good.
