Abstract
A tire holding member for a tire testing machine includes: a bottom rim, which is attached to a bottom spindle that is able to rotate around a central axis in the vertical direction; a top rim, which is disposed above the bottom spindle and which is attached to the bottom end of a top spindle that is able to rotate around the central axis with the bottom spindle; and a convex-sided member. One of the bottom rim or the top rim has a hole with the central axis at the center thereof. The other of the bottom rim or the top rim has an end surface facing the one rim. The bottom rim and the top rim are positioned by each other in a state in which the center of each coincides at the central axis due to the protruding section and the hole engaging with each other.
