💡Did You Know?

October is Road Safety Awareness Month in South Africa — and one of the biggest contributors to commercial vehicle
accidents is worn tyres.

At the legal minimum tread depth of 1mm, a loaded truck travelling at 80km/h needs up to 30% more distance to stop
compared to a truck running on tyres with 4mm of tread. In wet conditions, that gap widens even further.

Don't gamble with your drivers' lives or your cargo. Let The Tyre People inspect your fleet's tread depth before it's too
late. 👇

💡 Did You Know?

A single Off The Road (OTR) tyre used on a large mining haul truck can cost anywhere between R150,000 and R500,000 — and some ultra-class haul trucks run on tyres that cost more than R1 million each.

That's why proper OTR tyre management, correct inflation, and working with a specialist supplier isn't just important — it's essential for protecting one of your biggest operational investments.

At The Tyre People, we specialise in OTR tyre solutions for mining, earthmoving, and port handling sectors across South Africa. Let's protect your investment. 👇

🚫 MYTH: Retreaded tyres are unsafe and unreliable.

✅ FACT: Retreaded tyres that meet industry standards are just as safe as new tyres — and they're used on commercial aircraft, ambulances, and military vehicles around the world every single day.

Bandag retreaded tyres go through the same rigorous quality checks as new tyres, using only approved casing and tread rubber. The result? A tyre that performs like new, costs up to 50% less, and uses 70% less oil to produce.

Don't let the myth cost your fleet money. Switch to Bandag retreading with The Tyre People. 👇
