Wheels and roads in Sasolburg
Built around a petrochemical complex just south of the Vaal River, Sasolburg sees a lot of heavy traffic: tankers, trucks and contractor bakkies run between the plant, the R59 and the N1. Many residents work shifts or commute across the river to Vanderbijlpark and Vereeniging, and boat and caravan owners head for the Vaal Dam at Deneysville on weekends. Potholes on busy roads and in older suburbs bend rims, and heavy vehicles rut the tar. Tyre shops and alignment centres are in town and the industrial area, with more choice across the river in the Vaal Triangle. Johannesburg is close, so specialist rim work rarely needs a long trip.

- Truck, bus and taxi operators: cracked rims on shuttle vans checked for repair or replacement
