Not a good idea to go one size higher with Tires.

I bought a used Saturn that has pair of P185/65R14 and a pair of
P185/70R14 on the front.   The 70r14 at the front need to be
replaced.   I found a great pair of used 70r14 to replace them.   Is
it a really bad idea to miss match them or is that close enough?
Will it affect my millage or anything else?  thanks.

Stick with 4 of the same size tires, preferably OEM size.
