Exclamation 255's vs 235's on 3.08 rear end? please help!!

97 f150, 4.2 v6, auto, 3.08 rear end ratio, extended cab. Want to change tires from 235x70x16 to 255x70x16. Has anyone did this and if so how did truck performance change?

I went up to 265's on my 3.08, and didn't notice any difference at all, except for the change in speedo readings!
