Tyre wear in programed modes?

This may have been covered under a different topic. Forgive me if so, I have searched but I'm not sure used the correct terms!

I have a question regarding tyre wear in anything other than standard road mode: does it matter if the fronts and rears have very different use? I have a pair of new 'un on the front while the rears are getting down to the indicators. A car with a 'hard' centre diff. would have an issue with this because the rolling diameter would be different (and thus putting a constant strain on the wheels, front to back). If I run my SE in 'snow' mode am I causing the same potential problem? While there's no problem reaching for the knob while driving, I don't really want to keep switching in and out because the second I really *need* the stability, you know the law of Sod means I'd be in road mode!
So: is the Haldex diff. bothered about tyre wear? Anyone care to sound really convincing on this one? Do we have any LR technical employees lurking? Wink SE on an 07 plate
