Default HELP! Update on Potenza Flat Tire: Bridgestone will be replacing ONLY 1 of the rears

Will this be an issue?

I've heard when replacing tires, you should NEVER replace just 1.

Should I push to get 2 tires replaced for the axle?

Or should I buy the matching pair?

I can't afford to buy a whole set now.

Please help

Default Push for pair or decertification, AESIS info inside

From Audi Electronic Service Information System:
Page 44-1
Wheels and tires - General notes
"For safety reasons, tires should be replaced not individually, but in pairs for one axle at a time or for both axles together."
Page 44-13
Wheel alignment
Test requirements
"Tread depth difference of no more than 2mm on an axle"
