yea those tires are basicaly the same hieght, go to www.4lo.com and at the top you will see "metric tire conversion" type in the numbers and you will see that one is only .1" taller then the other...nothing significant at all, plus both the 265 and 235 have a load range of E. if your looking to keep it as close as possible with some extra width thats what i would stick with. yea i have extended family that i go to visit very often in Cortland. wish i was a full time upstater, cant stand downstate. IM A COUNTRY BOY!! get me off long island!!
