needing to get new tires here shortly and I don’t know crap about tires and what I can put on stock wheels. I don’t have a life or spacers. Just looking to get all terrain and about 33 I think. I just don’t know what to be looking for.

33" are just the next size taller so they will go on your wheels. Just remember when putting a tire that's not the stock size you have to recalibrate your speedometer.

When you put a tire that is taller then the stock tire then it makes your speedometer read wrong, in turn then it makes your transmission shifting wrong.
You can put a 33" on and shouldn't have any issues other then getting your speedometer recalibrated. You'll have to get a dongle that plugs into your ODB port and then you change the tire height so that the speedometer reads correctly.
A great 33” tire is the BF Goodrich K02 All Terrain
LT285 70 R17
C. Rated
Measures out to about 32” with 30 pounds of pressure
Had mine on every type of terrain with very little slippage . Great on road tires as well
I have always been under the impression that you can go 20mm wider than stock. So your 225 could go as high as 245. Keep in mind that the measured height of a tire will vary based on wheel width, which can affect clearance.
I'll join @Speartip in voting for the BFG. It's a fantastic choice if you need versatility. The super aggressive treads are a better if you're doing really tough stuff, but the trade-off is that they make a LOT of noise on the highway. I had bias-ply IROK 40's on a soft-top, V8 swapped JY. And I could hear them over the engine and wind noise.
