i'm assuming you want it to drive on? that's a really really bad idea because of the AWD. differences in tread wear between the new and old tires will actually destroy your transmission. the downside of AWD, if you blow a single tire you need a whole new set. Next time you buy new tires get insurance on them, it's cheap and usually has a clause that will get you an entire new set if you blow just one.
if you want it for a short range spare or some kind of decoration (lolwut?) then disregard all that and sorry, don't have any lying around.

if you have an automatic, you can pull a fuse and drive in 2wd. then you don't have to worry about trashing your differential with different size tires.

one of my aluminum wheels got a 3 inch deep dent in it, so i need the wheel big time. having a tire with slightly less tread is way mo' better than a donut. i really need the wheel, will drive with a lesser tire for a bit short distances, getting new tires soon

if its the same tire and same size, a tiny bit of tread wear difference between tires isnt gonna do anything at all.
