Maintenance/Repairs

My wife hit a pothole & bent a rim here in Potholuma, CA. Her Mercedes CLK 500 comes with staggered 17" rims, 7.5" in front & 8.5" in rear. We’d like to go with the same size all around. The owner’s manual says we can. The Mercedes dealership says it will cause all kinds of handling & mileage issues. Does anyone out there know the real answer?
