Michelin 235/80R17 LTX/MS vs. Michelin 265/70R17 LT A/S???

I have 68,000+ on my original Michelin 265/70R17 LT A/S tires. I still have maybe 2000 - 3000 left in the tires. I never rotated them until yesterday. My back tires looked excellent, and I put them on the front. The front drivers tire looked good except for a flat spot that has worn into it, possible from tire defect, road harmonics, out-of balance, or I need an alignment. The front passenger tire also looked excellent for never being rotated.

Has anyone run the Michelin 235/80R17 LTX/MS tires on your truck? I know they are about 1-3/16" narrower, but have the same height. I used to have 235/75R16 LTX/MS on my old F-250, and put almost 80,000 on them before I sold the truck. The prices are pretty much the same, just want input on what ya'll thought about them.

Thanks.
