The ones I want to purchase are the same size as my current tires. The difference is that the current ones are light truck tires and the tires I want to purchase are categorized as passenger tires.
I have a car, and my 2 year old has been getting into her own carseat since she could walk. She's able to get into it if we're using the van or the car. She likes to do things herself though and won't have it any other way.
their or them would work just fine instead of a;l this his/ her bussiness. But anyways I have twin siblings that are a year and a half Hannah climbs into the seat on her own but it takes an army to get Haydn anywhere near his! LOL So I geuss it depends on the kid? Its possible though because my little sister does it. - Hannah needs help getting into the car. not her seat - Haydn needs help getting in his seat not the car he's like a monkey!

Light Truck Vs Passenger Tires
I owned only one pick-up truck, and it was a small Dodge Ram. (The D-50 model.) Passenger car tires are not rated for the loads a pick-up is capable of carrying, and have stronger sidewalls for use on rough terrain. After speaking with some neighbors (One owns a Ford F-250, the other a Chevy Silverado.) they said they would use passenger tires only if the truck was never used as a work truck or taken off road. (But both admitted that they had never tried it.) I used regular tires on my D-50, but the truck was never used as a truck. The occasional piece of furniture every now and then for a buddy, but never a full load. (Which was not very much anyway on the Dodge.) And the closest I came to off-road was the gravel parking lot at the shooting range. I would say that if you know you will not load it up, tow anything, or drive on rough roads that the passenger tires should work fine. I would consult with the tire store manager as to what the warranty on the tires would be if you used them on the truck. If the warranty is void, it would definitely be a better bet to stick with the truck tires.
Actually for the truck that only gets used on occasion to haul furniture for a friend and otherwise is used primarily like a car you probably should get car tires. Truck tires do there best when under load, while car tires will have enough of a load on them without the added weight. Truck tires are actually a mix of both worlds, load handling and car comfort with emphasis on load carrying. I used to have a truck which I was constantly driving into a salvage yard. Even though I was using it more under load than not, I was constantly popping tires in the yard. I decided to use used passenger tires, and not drive the truck at highway speeds in order to save expense. I was never going over 40 miles an hour so if a tire went it was no problem to maintain control to stop and replace it. OK so what is happening if I use a passenger tire with a load like a truck? The sidewalls are being flexed more than they were designed to be. Over a long trip, this can cause them to overheat and give out. Even just short trips like I was doing can cause failure eventually because rubber like metal over time when bent back and forth will fail. In the case I was talking about I never had a tire go because of overloading because they just were not lasting long enough before something would get in them making them not repairable. I would talk to someone at a tire shop and ask them what their recommendations are, and tell them how you will be using the truck.
