In my experience front tyres wear faster on quattro with the extra weight on front and front tyres doing steering and most of braking and rear tyres just keeping back off the ground and a little bit of braking. I suppose there could be some differences due to driving style, if you are very gentle on braking and with a steering but accelerate full throttle in the straight line maybe rears wear faster, or if you mostly do motorway miles then fronts need to handle less steering. I have heard from some people who swear they get even wear.
Only one I heard of rear tyres wearing faster is Q7 but then again some people also report fronts wearing faster on Q7, generally Q7 is going through tyres very fast either way.
40k km (25k miles) that's pretty good anyway, I get about 20k miles from Michelin swapping front and rear couple of times but with fronts wearing faster.
