1 Spare Tire problem

Failure Date: 02/22/2005

Pickup came with 17 inch tires. Ordered 3 new 17 inch tires and was planning on using the spare as the 4th tire. The spare was a 16 inch tire instead on a 17 inch. Dealership claims no damage wil come to vehicle or lost of driving control when using the 16 inch tire. Gm web site clearly states "mixing tires could cause you to lose control while driving. " dealership showed me bulleting from gm stating the size difference will not cause concern. Who do I believe?.
