The average tyre breakdowns use to be11 tyrebreakdowns per month. This totally changed to one tyre breakdown in four months. The result is almost unbelievable and as a result we saved in the vicinity ofR200000just on tyre breakdowns…
To date we have not incurred more than1.5 hoursdowntime over a period of12 768 hoursdue to tyre issues. We will be replacing some of the existing tyres due to normal wear and tear. All previous pressure problems have been solved. The cost on the fuel saving due to correct pressure and the extended tyre life is alsonot yet part of the equation.
