About this file
The document is an attachment detailing specialty tire specifications for pick-up trucks, associated with a municipal procurement opportunity. The specification requires Tier I Premium Tires, specifically emphasizing Goodyear/Dunlop brands for extreme service applications, with a strong focus on safety and performance standards. The tires must be new, radial, tubeless design with specific technical requirements including a minimum three-steel belt construction, full-width protector ply, rectangular/rounded bead structure, side wall wear indicators, and curb guards. The specifications mandate tires with a load index rating above 100, a minimum 10-ply rating, and all-terrain (AT/S) capabilities.
The document indicates a rigorous procurement process with strict quality control measures, requiring manufacturers to produce first-line quality tires that meet on/off highway and aggressive surface performance standards. Vendors proposing alternatives to Goodyear Wrangler tires must comprehensively address safety and performance concerns for pre-approval. The specification allows for potential exemptions, but requires manufacturers to submit an "Acceptance Letter" bound with the bid, highlighting alternate specifications and referencing specific bid item numbers. The city reserves the right to request proof of tire specifications and maintain high standards for vehicle safety and operational performance.
