UNSPSC 25172510: Foam tire

Tire filled with foam rather than air.

UNSPSC 25172510 Foam tire (Commodity) encompasses tires for fleet, transit, and municipal vehicle maintenance—including standard pneumatic tires for buses, heavy trucks, light vehicles, and specialized equipment, as well as tire services such as repair, retreading, recapping, mounting, balancing, and disposal. State and local governments procure foam tires and tire services through school districts, city departments (particularly fleet and public works), county transportation authorities, and transit agencies to maintain vehicles ranging from school buses to heavy-duty trucks and groundskeeping equipment. Recent activity shows demand across automotive shop supply (general tire accessories and gauges), comprehensive tire procurement with service components (repair, retreading, capping, emergency roadside assistance), and tire recapping and recycling services for heavy equipment fleets.

Issuing bodies include city departments of public works and fleet services, county transportation and fleet management operations, school district transportation departments, and regional service cooperatives. The City of Atlanta, City of Philadelphia, Rockwood School District (Missouri), School Board of Sarasota County (Florida), Brevard County (Florida), and the City of Tampa represent recent active buyers. Geographic activity spans Florida, Georgia, Missouri, Pennsylvania, Minnesota-adjacent cooperative frameworks (Sourcewell), and Washington state. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Atlanta's IFB for tires, tire disposal, and tire repair services (PE66062NONST2026000000369, due May 8, 2026); the City of Philadelphia's Bid B2626718 for tire recapping and repair services with an estimated contract value of $86,160.77 for the initial one-year period (due April 29, 2026); Rockwood School District's RFP 2614201 for bus and fleet vehicle tires and tire services (due March 31, 2026); and the School Board of Sarasota County's Bid #26-0124 for automotive and light truck repair parts including tires (due February 12, 2026). Contract terms typically run one to three years with options for renewal, and vendors commonly must carry general liability and workers' compensation insurance, maintain emergency service availability, and comply with E-Verify and local wage or preference requirements where applicable.
