The rears are p195/65 R15.
Does this indicate different rim width or are the rims all around the same?
I would like to put four 235/75 R15's all around. Can I?
The overall diameter of your old tires are the same (25") so there should be no adverse effect to running those front/rear.

Just because it hasn't happened to you doesn't mean it never will, or that it's okay. I've crossed the road many times & never got hit by a bus, but others haven't been so lucky.
