The arm is adjustable in length, the support mounts guide wheels for rollingly engaging the outer periphery of the vehicle wheel from which the tire is supported and the buffing structure includes a motor driven buffing wheel rotatable about an axis which generally parallels the longitudinal extent of the arm.
