Of course you can but the question is should you? The answer is no, this a a bad swap. You should never change the overall diameter by more than 3% and the 275 is 3.51% larger in overall diameter. This will cause your speedometer to read 57.8 at a true 60 mph. This will have an adverse effect on fuel mileage braking and handling. If you wish to go to a larger tire such as a 275 then you need to go with size 275/60-15. This is an excellent swap and is almost identical to the 255/65-15 in overall diameter. Just make sure you have no clearance issues when turning.

Can you substitute 235-75 r15 tires with 205-65 r15 tires?
Absolutely not as you are going in the wrong direction. This would be a horrible substitute. The 235 tire would be 11.7% smaller in overall diameter. Your speedometer would read 68 mph at a true 60 mph. Handling, braking, ride, and fuel mileage would suffer. If you wish to switch to a 65 series tire then you will have to go with a 275/65-15. But I highly recommend you do not go with a 65 series tire from a 75 series. I recommend you go with a 70 series tire in the size 255/70-15 which will work well.
