yes
The way you have phrased your question is confusing. If you are saying that the 235/70-16 is the OEM size the answer is NO, this is not an acceptable swap. Going either way this is a bad swap. If your OEM size is 235/70-16 and you want to go to a 75 series tire then you need to install a 215/75-16. If your OEM size is 245/75-16 and you want to go to a 70 series tire then go with a 265/70-16.
Allot of difference. The 265/75-16 is 5.03% 1.59" larger in overall diameter than the 255/70-16 and is a narrower tire. These 2 sizes are not interchangeable.
Of course you can but you should not. The 70 series tire will have a 1" smaller diameter than the 75 series tire. Your speedometer will be 2 mph too slow. A better substitute would be a 285/70-16.
They are the same.
The 2003 Chevrolet Tahoe (4WD) was offered in 16 and 17 inch wheels. The 16 inches sizes included 265/70/16, 245/75/16, 265/75/16 and 265/70/17. If the vehicle is fitted with aftermarket wheels and tires (and the load rating is appropriate) 26 inch wheels with 305/30/26 are possible.
Of course you can but you should not. The 70 series tire will have a 1" smaller diameter than the 75 series tire. Your speedometer will be 2 mph too slow. A better substitute would be a 285/70-16.
Yes - The difference is the 70 is a lower profile or less height.
Of course you can but, this is an unacceptable swap. The 245/70 series tire will be 3.16% (1") too small in overall diameter. Your speedometer will read 61.9 at a true 60 mph. Braking, handling, ride, performance, and fuel economy will be adversely effected. If you wish to go to a 70 series tire then install size 265/70-16 which is an excellent swap. 255/70-16 is acceptable but not as good as a 265/70-16.
Yes. the diameter will be a little less but it will still work. You won't notice much difference at all except for more responsive steering and less roll.

Yes you can, as long as you replace all four tires. Having different sizes tires on the vehicle will ruin the diff as the car believes it is constantly cornering, thus wearing either side at a different rate.
