Check load ratings on replacement mags for bakkies.
Wheels and roads in Kimberley
Hot, dry and far from a metro, Kimberley is where the N12 and the N8 cross on the edge of the Karoo. Trucks run through on the N12 between Gauteng and the Cape, while cattle and game farmers drive long gravel roads in double cabs with trailers. Irrigated farms around Barkly West and the Vaal add tractors and harvest traffic. Intense summer sun ages tyres and bakes the lacquer on alloy wheels, and corrugated gravel shakes bearings loose. Tyre shops and alignment centres are found along the main roads into the city and in the industrial areas, including near Beaconsfield. Simple bends and scuffs are handled locally; complex rim work may go to Bloemfontein or Gauteng.
Typical tyre changer machines requests in the area come from:
- Farms: a farm workshop changing bakkie and trailer tyres without a trip to town
- Company and rental fleets: a fleet workshop swapping van and bakkie tyres in house between services
- Mines and construction sites: a mine workshop keeping LDV tyres turning over quickly on site
