The offset could contribute to more stress on the bearings and will effecct the handling. The real stress on the AWD comes when the wheels are slipping and then come into contact with dry pavement. Or, one of the tires is worn too much causing the the AWD system to send excess power to the rear wheels all of the time - like driving with the spare.
