A device for lifting a wheel and rolling the wheel on a surface includes an elongated rigid plate having a top side, a bottom side, a peripheral edge, a pedal portion at a rear end of the rigid plate, and a wheel portion at a forward end of the rigid plate. A roller is fixed with the bottom side of the rigid plate and the peripheral edge of the wheel portion at the forward end of the rigid plate is bent upward to form a tire-tread engaging lip, at least a portion of which engages a tread of the wheel. In use, with the wheel resting on the wheel portion, the pedal portion may be pressed downwardly to pivot the rigid plate about the roller to lift the wheel. The lifting device is then rolled on the surface to place the wheel at a desired position.
