285/75/16 is right around 33. Make sure the bolt pattern for the wheels is 5 5.5 or they wont fit.

A 305/70/16 is a 33" by 12.5" tire. A 285/75/16 is a 33" by 11.5" tire. A 255/85/16 tire is a 33" by 10.5" tire. 255 tires a usually an "E" rated tire. Of course, tires are rarely their full advertised size. 285 tires are a very common size tire.
