Are cracked o r bent rims a frequent issue in Changan Kalam due to poor road conditions in Pakistan’s rural areas?

Users in Punjab and Balochistan complain about wheel damage from rough roads. Are the factory rims not strong enough for such conditions?

Yes — especially in Punjab and Balochistan.

Factory rims are often lightweight steel, which:

Deforms easily on rough terrain

Can crack under heavy cargo load

Even moderate impact with road edges o r speed breakers can cause damage.

Solution: Dealers should offer stronger alloy o r reinforced steel rims suited for rural roads.
