Polokwane notes on tyres, alignment & wheel services
Truck tyre services work the N1 corridor with roadside call-outs, dual wheel changes and regrooving where tyres are marked for it. Fitment centres in Ladanna handle car and bakkie tyres, alignment and balancing. Heat builds up in tyres on long runs, so check pressures cold before leaving. Ask about TPMS sensors if your SUV warning light came on after a tyre change.
Repairers and tyre shops in Polokwane
The N1 is the main artery of Polokwane. Long distance trucks heading for Beitbridge and Zimbabwe pass through or overnight here, and their tyres, rims and wheel bearings keep truck tyre services busy at all hours. The city is also the motor trade centre for much of Limpopo, so people drive in from Mankweng, Moletjie and further out with bent rims, worn tyres and alignment problems. Game farms and cattle ranches bring bakkies and 4x4s off gravel. Tyre shops, fitment centres and mag repairers are concentrated in the Ladanna industrial area and along the main roads into the CBD, with newer outlets toward Bendor. Most rim work is done locally, though complex jobs may still go to Pretoria.

- Truck, bus and taxi operators: minibus taxis and delivery vans with heavy loads and high daily distances
- Company and rental fleets: high mileage company cars and vans with bearings replaced before they fail on the road
