Help with advice on tires. (I'm sure this is asked a lot)

I found a really good deal on some 33x12.5 r15. I'm not sure how to measure to see if they'll fit. I have a 1990 Toyota pickup with 31x10.5 on it now that are shot. Fully turned to the right
Back of the front tire turned all the way to the left. (I'm new to this)
Side view not turned at all. Thanks for looking.
figured I'd ask around on forums for advice any input is appreciated thanks for your time

Doubt you can fit 33x12.50 on stock height without them rubbing badly, my buddy has 32x11.50 on his truck, stock height, well not exactly 32x12.50 but within half an inch, a little smaller. The rough country 4-5 inch lift recommends 33x12.50, so no, I doubt those size tires will fit

you can fit them, but them will rub like crazy. an add a leaf in the back and ball joint spacers up front will get you the lift but most of the time going to 33's you will also want to re-gear.
you don't need a 4-5 rough country lift to fit 33's

either looking at the age checking in your tires you need to replace those asap...personally i would replace them tomorrow

Thanks. I figured they'd fit but I do like to drive around in the mountains. That's when I think I'll have problems. Love the truck... Tires though are expensive.
