The 70 and 65 is the sidewall aspect ratio, meaning that 70% of the tire is sidewall. The more sidewall means a slightly taller tire because they are the same 265 mm width from the widest part of the inner sidewall to widest part of the outer sidewall (section width), the 70's will have 5 percent more sidewall than the 65's.
