Abstract
A spoke angle deviation amount measuring system () includes a first to fourth support units () to () configured to support rotatably a first to fourth tires () to (), respectively. Shaft portions () of the support units () to () are positioned by positioning caps () after a vehicle () is moved to a measuring position with a steering wheel () positioned neutral. With the tires () to () inclined at a toe angle with respect to a front-and-rear direction, when the vehicle () is caused to travel forwards, lateral stress is exerted on the support units () to (), whereby the support units () to () turn about the corresponding shaft portions (). An angle sensor () detects turning angles of the support units () to (). A control device () calculates a spoke angle deviation amount based on the detected turning angles.
