Yes, a P235/55R16 tire can fit a 1996 Chevrolet Cavalier, but it may not be the ideal size. The stock tire size for a 1996 Cavalier is typically P195/65R15 or P205/55R16, so using a larger tire could affect handling, speedometer accuracy, and clearance. It's important to check for sufficient wheel well space and consult with a tire professional to ensure compatibility.

Using a P235/60R17 tire with a P235/65R17 tire on the same vehicle is not recommended. The difference in aspect ratio (the second number) means the 65 series tire is taller than the 60 series tire, which can affect handling, speedometer accuracy, and overall vehicle dynamics. It's best to use tires of the same size to ensure optimal performance and safety.
