A 145/80R17 spare size is within the accepted tolerance range for temporary use with 1996 Mercury Cougar OEM tire diameters.


The 17" spare wheel will not interfere with the brake or suspension system, regardless of OEM wheel option. The vehicle can have a different wheel size than the spare and it will still work properly. The spare wheel size and tire diameter have both been taken into consideration.

With many vehicle manufacturers removing the option for a spare tire, the EZ Spare Wheel was created to provide an aftermarket solution for this growing problem. EZ Spare has created a durable and safe alloy wheel designed to fit 1996 Mercury Cougar vehicles while providing convenience and safety.

This compact size spare wheel and tire saves overall space and is very similar to the spares that most vehicle manufacturers equipped vehicles with in the past. Intended only to be used temporarily in the event of a flat tire, this spare permits drivers to continue their travels to their destination or to a service provider to repair or replace the vehicle’s damaged tire.
