ABSTRACT:
A shaft receiving section of a simulation wheel is attached to a hub of a vehicle such that the shaft receiving section is located outside the vehicle. A tire mounting section surrounding the shaft receiving section concentrically with the shaft receiving section with a bearing being interposed between the shaft receiving section and the tire mounting section and further surrounding the peripheral surface of the hub to allow a tire to be mounted at a portion surrounding the peripheral surface of the hub is provided. The tire is mounted on the tire mounting section. The shaft receiving section is made rotatable with the rotation of the tire mounting section being stopped. Load is applied to an axle from a dynamometer.
