Tyres, the most expensive wear ‘part’ on a vehicle when reckoned cost per kilometre. Therefore you want the most cost effective and reliable tyre. There are few brands that want to guarantee 80000km, but none of them guarantee this in Namibia, because they not even come close to. The best tyre to withstand the very harsh roads and terrain is the Hankook DynaPro MT (Pattern Code RT03). As there was a very low supply of these tyres from the local dealers, we decided to import them directly from the manufacturers in Korea. This process incurs a high cost due to very high import tax, but these tyres are worth every cent.

Our story began long before the Sharwoods name became synonymous with fast, efficient fitment of tyres, batteries, shocks and exhausts.The founder of Sharwoods, Alec Sharwood, was born in Kimberly in 1899 during the Boer war. He was a pilot in the first world war and, on returning to Kimberly, trained at de Beers. He then moved to Grahamstown in 1923 where he started a business selling Dort cars. A year later he moved to Port Elizabeth and started a petrol filling station selling Atlantic petrol. This was a successful venture and the number of petrol stations grew to five.A tyre retreading factory was started in 1930 and remained in operation for many years while retreading was a good and viable business. The Honda motorcycle franchise was added in 1968 and grew to consist of all the major motorcycle agencies in Port Elizabeth.With the launch of the Supa Quick network, more than 25 years ago, the filling stations each had a Supa Quick fitment centre added. This proved the correct way to go and it was decided to concentrate on fitment centres.Richard Sharwood had taken over the running of the family business and under his leadership there was rapid expansion. There are now nine fitment centres, an exhaust factory, a battery outlet, a filling station, a used tyre distribution centre, an IT facility, good property aquisitions and expansion planned for the new year.Sharwoods is in good shape, has taken advantage of the economic situations and is ready for the future.

We provide a host of additional services such as: Electronic Wheel Balancing. We use John Bean machines in conjunction with Haweka Pro-Base mounting systems. These are top of the range equipment, ensuring we receive the most accurate results. Wheel balancing is done to prevent your wheels from having heavy spots that can cause vibrations and premature wearing of your tyres, struts, shocks and other steering components. If your wheels are out of balance they will literally bounce and wobble down the road. 3D Wheel Alignment. Exhaust & Tyre City uses John Bean Visialiner equipment. It is always advisable to do wheel alignment as over time your vehicle’s suspension gets set, thus the camber and toe specifications may drift outside of the manufacturer’s limit. This results in your vehicle pulling to one side and ultimately tyre wear. Taxi Service. We will drop you off at home or at work (within a 5km distance) so you can carry on with your day as normal while we work on your car. Overnight Facilities. Our premises are completely secured and have 24 hour security in place, so if your vehicle needs to stay overnight, it will be completely safe and secure. One Stop Shop.
