Tire Question

I am considering putting the same size tire on my tv as are on my monte. My tv runs 265/75R16 and my monte on 235/85R/16 both load range E. I can't usually afford to buy four tires at a time and would like to just push the front tv tires to the drivers and the drivers to the front 5er and those to the back 5er keeping the best for the spare. In that way I can buy only two tires a year, probably put more overall miles (currently about 20-24K on tv an 5-7k on 5er a year)on the four tires and have no tire older than four years or so. I don't understand this stuff very well, so I am wandering what the problems are with doing this? I have a single rear wheel 4X4 tv.

Also, could I start by just getting two tires (235/85R16) for my tv? Just thought, I have for years always put the newest tires on the front of my vehicle. If I can start with two tires, is this the best way to go, or should I continue to do it this way.

Sorry I don't know any better folks, I am much better at reading Greek than I am about any type of mechanical knowledge...and I don't read Greek very well, at that:>)
