That's typically what I'm doing. The ride quality in the rear is nothing short of punishing with the tires set to MAX load conditions.

The laws in the USA require the sticker on the B pillar to show MAX load. Most don't comprehend this. The law has been in place since ~ 2006. Audi is one of the few mfrs still providing the comprehensive information in the Owner's Manual. Most other mfrs no longer bother.
