Pietermaritzburg notes on equipment & supplies
Workshops here buy from suppliers in Willowton and Mkondeni or have machines delivered from Pinetown and Durban, usually within a few days. Farm tyre equipment, bead breakers for tractor tyres and heavy duty jacks sell well. Ask whether the supplier installs and calibrates aligners on site. Second hand tyre changers and balancers turn up often, but ask about spare parts before buying older machines.
Pietermaritzburg: the roads, the vehicles and the workshops
The capital of KwaZulu-Natal sits in a bowl below the Midlands, and the N3 climb up Town Hill shapes much of its tyre work. Trucks and holiday traffic run past on the way to Gauteng and back, while farm bakkies and trailers come in from Howick, Hilton and the dairy and timber country beyond. City streets are older and potholed, especially after the heavy summer storms, and Edendale Road and the routes into Northdale and Imbali see a lot of bent rims and punctures. Most tyre shops, wheel repairers and alignment centres sit in Willowton, Mkondeni and along the main roads near the city centre. Winters bring cold mornings and frost, so tyre pressures drop overnight.
Typical mag wheels requests in the area come from:
- Private car owners: a single replacement mag after a crack, or a new set for an older hatchback
- Company and rental fleets: replacement steel rims and spares for a fleet of bakkies and vans
- Tyre shops and wheel workshops: a tyre shop sourcing wheels to fit and balance for its customers
