New tire help, please

I have a 2004 F150 XLT Crewcab and I need to get new tires. I currently have 255/70R17 and I would like to know if I could get 265/70R17 as the replacements?
I would like to know if by doing this what the end result would be. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I don't see any reason why a small size increase like that wouldn't work. It will affect your speedometer/odometer accuracy by a small amount, maybe 3%, and very slightly reduce your performance.
