    I didn't know this? I did a search in your area for the g-Force T/A™ KDWS. came up with 32 dealers, might want to call around to see if they have any left

    Did you try tirerack? Also, have your local places that carry BFGs check thier own wharehouses. Sometimes they still have some.

    I believe the availability problem is with the rear size OEM BFG KDWS 245/55/18 only. Still many users for the front OEM BFG KDWS 235/50/18 size. So there shouldn't be a problem with fronts.

    I am still able to get both fronts and rears in my area ... at least about 6 months ago when the rears were replaced.

    There are many options for your marauder. I am running Toyo proxies on the rear and they are a slick in the rain, other than no problem.

    Someone stated the Coopers RS3A, others are using Nitto's

    Good luck with the search.

    If you still have issues PM me I am just over the Pa/NJ line and I work in CC most weekends

    Tirerack on backorder.

    Just ordered rears from here. I'm sure I'll need em. Let you know if they actually have them and are OK.

    BFG only makes the rears occasionally. Once they get enough backorders, thet put them back into production. I waited 9 months once.

    The Cooper RS3-A tires are all season and ride very nice & grip well. Check out the reviews here on them. I put a set on my front last week and I really like them.

    I also put the Coopers on mine last week, haven't had them in the rain much yet, though they do seem a little easy to spin in the rain, but maybe there was just a slick spot or something. Otherwise ride comfort is good, steering is easy, they look excellent from the sidewalls, not sure about tire wear...but we shall see.

    Tire Rack had both front and rear a few months ago when I replced mine tires. They are only made once a year, so if you see them listed, buy ahead of your need.
    I do hear good things about the NITTO tires. You might try that brand.
