3.3.2.1.4 Tires with flaps.

Flaps shall be rolled and placed inside the tire. When the size of the rolled flap and normal distance between beads assure that flap will remain in place during normal handling and transportation, no tying is required.

When it is too difficult to insert the rolied flap within the tire, it shall be secured within the tire in the normal installed position. Safe transportation shall be ensured by securing flaps within the tire using twine conforming to A-A-228 or A-A-145 1, or nonmetallic strapping conforming to ASTM D3950.

While price may be a significant factor in the evaluation of offers, the final award decision will be based upon a combination of price, delivery, past performance and other evaluation factors as described in the solicitation.
