An apparatus for measuring the axial deviation of a vehicle wheel surface relative to a reference plane. The apparatus includes a base which supports the vehicle wheel. A post is mounted upon the base. The post has an axial bore formed therein. The bore has an end surface which is a known axial distance from the reference plane. The apparatus also has a housing adapted to contact a plurality of points located on a surface of the wheel, the plurality of points defining an annular surface on a portion of the wheel face. The apparatus further includes a gage mounted in the housing. The gage has a probe which is received by the post bore. The gage is operative to measure the deviation of the axial distance between the annular surface on the wheel face and the reference plane.
