How about larger changes, like 2 inches or so..
I have heard conflicting theories on this matter, and am curious, but have never looked into it myself. What do you think?

That is what I was thinking. My only question is: How does the Allroad get away with it?
My neanderthal thinking makes me think that if the Allroad can move up and down 3 inches, why can't the A4? Or are the suspensions completely different..

My guess...
if toe is affected by ride height on the all-road, they can just optimize it for the lower setting, knowing that these cars spend most, if not all, of their time "on-road". The amount of time (and mileage) one of these cars spends at a higher setting is probably insignificant enough that irregular tire wear will never occur. Odd steering habits might also go unnoticed because of the terrain that requires the higher setting.
