Bf goodrich is not making the specific tire size for our autos, 2003 Mercury Marauder size of 245/55/18 and there is no other tire maker that has this size.

Rear tires for 2003 Mercury Marauder I have 65,000 miles on my car and need to replace my rear tires for the car for the second time I cannot find the tires anywhere, not even bfg they are always on backorder. The last time it took 5 months searching for these tires one here and one there. No other production vehicle uses these tires. It is frustrating worrying about tire failure on a fairly new vehicle especially when you know if it does fail you cannot drive the car unless you get unmatched tires. Help!!!!!

I am an owner of a 2003 Mercury Marauder. The vehicle oem rear tires manufactured by bf goodrich are no longer available. Bfg is the only company that manufactures this size tire(245/15/18) this tire is the only one that Ford Motor Company recommends for this car and the use of another size could possibly lead to a handling problem with the car. These tires have been on back-order for a year and with over 11,000 Marauders on the road, there could possibly be a safety issue.
