Default Mismatched tires!!

Took Eiger 4X4 to dealer Saturday for new tires and ordered 26X9X12-Front 26X12X12-Rear. Was in a rush as they were closing at 4 on Saturday and got home drove it, drove like a piece of on the highway got off and looked at the rear and discovered 27X12X12 on the rear.......Eiger seat now clears almost 39" for air intake but will that size tire cause engine damage etc??? How freaking stupid is the dealer for not being able to match a set of freaking tires!! Bad enough to return or would you guys keep it as is???

If the rear tires are taller than the front...don't put it in 4wd. This will cause major damage to your drivetrain.
