UNSPSC 25172512: Motorcycle tire

A type of tire designed for 2-wheel vehicles that has a round cross section to facilitate the leaning necessary when a motorcycle turns. It provides the only contact with the ground and has a large influence over motorcycle handling characteristics.

UNSPSC 25172512 Motorcycle tire is a Commodity code that, in recent state and local practice, describes tire procurement and tire-related services including supply, disposal, repair, and retreading across all vehicle classes and applications. State and local governments procure tires directly as consumable fleet assets, engage tire disposal and recycling services to manage waste-tire streams, and contract for on-site and emergency tire repair and maintenance. The issuing bodies span a mix of city departments (Atlanta), county transportation and public works divisions (Pasco County, Pinal County), and state cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell). No single jurisdiction dominates the recent activity; each appears once in the posted opportunities block, suggesting activity is dispersed across geographies and jurisdictional types rather than concentrated in repeat buyers.

Recent solicitation activity clusters in Florida, Arizona, Washington State, and Minnesota. The City of Atlanta issued an IFB for tires of all sizes, tire disposal, and repair services with a May 8, 2026 response deadline; Pasco County, Florida posted an IFB for waste tire pickup and disposal from two county collection sites (approximately 1,000 tons annually) with a June 23, 2026 deadline and a contract term through September 30, 2029 plus two one-year extension options, requiring FDEP or EPA approval for tire-processing facilities and a $50,000 Florida Performance Bond; Pinal County, Arizona issued a solicitation for retread tires for Public Works with a May 8, 2026 deadline; and Sourcewell, a Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicle, posted an RFP for law enforcement equipment (primarily a mismatch to the motorcycle-tire code scope) on behalf of participating counties across Washington and multiple states, due June 16, 2026. The code shows limited recent pipeline depth — only four posted opportunities in the source block — and the Sourcewell posting appears tangential to tire supply or service work itself.
