Default tire selection question

I am new to this forum but i got a 94 fullsize blazer. Sticker says 265/75r16 or 245/75r16 for tires but i was looking and found 235/80r16 wich are narrower but almost same height just wondering if any one else has run these size tires. Also would they wear faster because they are narrower.

No, they will not wear faster because they are narrower.
