Mercury Cougar Spare Tire

The Mercury Cougar, a classic model of vehicle manufactured by the Mercury division of Ford Motor Company, typically comes equipped with a spare tire. The exact specifications of this tire may vary depending on the exact year and model of the vehicle, but a commonly used size is the T165/80D16. The tire is a compact temporary spare, also known as a "donut" spare tire, which is designed for temporary use in the event of a flat or damaged tire. This spare tire, due to its compact size and temporary designation, should not be used for long distance, high speed or heavy load driving. It is not intended to replace a regular tire but to compensate for sudden tire issues until a replacement tire can be procured.

Mercury Cougar models manufactured from 1990 to 2002 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 24.5" to 26.9", allowing the use of a temporary spare tire with a near same diameter as the OEM tire. Tire diameter and wheel diameter clearance have been taken into account for the specific Mercury Cougar years and trims.

Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some Mercury Cougar vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 23.8" to 27.7". Some Cougar models may require the use of a traditional full-size tire as a spare. To ensure safe temporary mobility in case of a road emergency, always refer to the vehicle owner's manual for the correct Mercury Cougar spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
