Can you replace a 21555R16 tire with a 21560R16?

No, that would cause the speedometer to be off as there would be 1" difference in diameter. You can replace 215/55-16 with 235/50-16 which would both be 25.3" in diameter. You must keep the diameter as close as possible to the same 25.3" diameter as the OEM tire.

The 215/55-16 tire is 3.24% (.85") smaller in overall diameter than the 215/60-16 tire. It is never advisable to go over 3% difference. Stick with the OEM size as recommended by the manufacture of your car.

Is it all right to replace 215 70 r 16 tires with 215 55 r16 tires on a 2003 ford escape?

No this is a terrible swap. The 55 series tire will be 9.13% too small and your speedometer will read 66 mph at a true 60 mph. Handling and ride will also be adversely effected. If you want to go to a wider tire then go with a 235/65-16 which will be a very good swap. A 255/60-16 will also be a good swap unless you have clearance problems as it may be too wide. With either size your speedometer will be read 59.4 mph at a true 60 mph. .
