With AWD would it do any damge using a smaller/stock size spare when the other 3 tires are 32's. I dont want to cause any damage to the other tires, gears etc. cause a 32" tire wont fit in the spare catch w/ my hitch.

I can sympathise with you. I have 30.5" 18's, and a 275/60/17(30") as a spare. Mine is also AWD. We might lower the air pressure in the three regular tires, and keep the pressure up in the spare, for a short distance.
I hope my spare is close enough in size, but I do carry an air pump, and repair my own tires.
I had to cut off about 3/8" from the front of my trailer hitch to make room for the spare.
Good luck,
DonW
