I don't know if the interviews I've read with Dylan are correct but among the ones I've come across I've learned that Dylan auditioned 4 times and originally was slated for the role of Scott but after reading the part for Stiles he changed his mind and wanted that one. Stiles is a more versatile and whimsical character vs. Scott's straight-shooter type of role.

Again, all of this came from various interviews and sites such as Movie Vortex and Dylan O'brien dot org. to name a few.
