Rim & mag repair in Bellville: local notes
Dealers along Voortrekker Road send a steady stream of mags for refurbishment before sale, so repairers in Bellville South and Stikland are geared for quick turnaround. Curb rash from Tygervalley parking and bends from potholes on older streets are common. Powder coating and diamond cutting are widely offered. A cracked wheel or one welded before should be replaced.
Bellville: the roads, the vehicles and the workshops
Voortrekker Road through Parow and Bellville has long been one of Cape Town's busiest motor strips, lined with dealers, tyre shops and workshops. Bellville sits at the heart of the northern suburbs, where the N1 and the R300 meet, and fleet vans, minibus taxis and commuters pass through all day. Car dealers and used car lots keep wheel refurbishers busy getting mags ready for sale. Bellville South and Stikland have industrial areas with wheel repairers, tyre wholesalers and alignment shops, while Tygervalley and Durbanville bring premium SUVs with curb rash. Gravel roads on the wine farms around Durbanville cause cuts and stone chips, and winter rain opens potholes on older streets.
