Question tires size does it matter

I have a 1992 f150 inline six fwd reg cab now my front seems like its has ligth duty springs and havey duty leafs in the back.I have a brother inlaw that has
an 89 f250 inline 6 fwd reg cab with heavy duty springs and leafs and he can put 35 12.5 on his, but they rub alittle.My question here is will i be able to put 33 12.5 on my truck or will they rub like the f 250 35s?

or if theres a post already can some one point me in the rigth direction.thank you for you time.

Are you just wanting to put the 33's in the back? If you are, they will easily fit in the back, being I have 35's in the back. But you might be able to squeeze the 33's in the front if you put a spacer in and don't crank the wheel all the way, and don't do crazy wheelin.

It will be really tight . Like turn wrong and bend bumper tight. Get a lift kit then the 33"
Stick with 31" and mayby 32" . You truck sit lower than a 250 If it rubs on his it will hit hard on yours.
