It won't make a difference as far as a spare goes. Do you replace your spare tire when you get new tires?

I remember back in 97 when a bunch of F-series were recalled because the 17" trucks came with 16" spares. Ford had no problem replacing them, and neither should your dealer now.

edit - maybe it was the 235 to 265 size tires, but either way it was a safety recall.
