A method of analysing a vehicle wheel with a tyre, comprising rotating the vehicle wheel with a first number of revolutions for a first period of time, wherein a tread surface of the tyre is pressed with a first force against a first rotatable drum, the first force is measured with a first measuring device, and the first force is kept substantially constant; and rotating the vehicle wheel with a second number of revolutions for a second period of time, wherein the tread surface is pressed with a second force against the first drum or a second rotatable drum, and the second force is measured. An apparatus for analysing a vehicle wheel with a tyre, wherein the vehicle wheel is rotated with a first number of revolutions for a first period of time, wherein a tread surface of the tyre is pressed with a first force against a first rotatable drum, the first force is measured with a first measuring device, and the first force is kept substantially constant; and the vehicle wheel is rotated with a second number of revolutions for a second period of time, wherein the tread surface is pressed with a second force against the first drum or a second rotatable drum, and the second force is measured.
