A vehicle rear wheels steering apparatus is provided with a guide member having a guideway capable of freely tilting toward the axis of the rod member. Therefore, when the rod member rotates around the axis, an operating member provided on the outside of the rod member rotates around the rod member axis along the guideway to steer the rear wheels by an amount corresponding to an amount of rotation of the rod member and an amount of tilting of the guideway.
