Default Will my stock 1995 Ram 2500 fit 33's?

I'm looking at gettting some new tires for my truck. ive read around different places and some say theyve it 33s and some say that they wont fit, but never a definite yes or no. could someone please answer this for me?
and if it matters, the tires im looking at are the bfg mud terrains and general grabbers. everything is stock on the truck.

Not enough info. 4x4? 2WD? Any lift?

They will probably rub on turns...

I have a 1500 with almost flat rear leafs and a 300 pound bumper that weighs down the front. I have ~34.5's on a slightly offset rim and barely rub at full turn. I'd say you'd be good with some different rims. With my stock rims I rubbed like hell haha.

33's should go just fine on a 3/4 ton. Watch the width though, that will cause them to rub on the lower control arms at full turn.

My 2500 4x4 with 305 MTZ's on stock rims would rub on the control arms enough to make noise but not interfere with turning radius.

Body lift and appropriate rims. Might still have slight rubbing issues.
