Equipment & supplies in Gauteng: local notes
Gauteng is where most equipment suppliers keep stock and demo machines, so tyre changers, balancers, camera-based aligners and rim straightening presses can often be seen working before you buy. Second hand machines come up when workshops upgrade. Check the voltage a machine needs, since many heavy units run on three phase power, and plan for load-shedding with a generator or inverter. Wheel nuts, valves and patches are stocked by wholesalers in most industrial areas.
Wheels and roads in Gauteng
Pothole season on the Highveld is the reason most Gauteng wheels end up on a straightening machine. Summer thunderstorms soak old tar on the M1, the R21 and suburban roads from Soweto to Pretoria East, and by February the inner lips of low-profile mags are bent and leaking at the bead. Commuters in hatchbacks, minibus taxis, delivery bakkies and premium SUVs from Sandton and Waterkloof all share the same craters. The province has the deepest bench of mag repair shops, fitment centres and tyre wholesalers in the country, clustered in industrial areas like Wadeville, Kya Sand, Strijdom Park, Isando and Rosslyn. Crack welding, diamond cutting and powder coating are usually done locally, and load-shedding can still pause a lathe or an oven.

- Dealers, panel shops and insurers: a kit and compressor in the boot of demo and courtesy cars
