Disclosed is an apparatus 100 for monitoring deflection of a tyre (200, figure 2). The apparatus comprises a memory 120, storing tyre behaviour information which relates tyre deflection to tyre load and tyre pressure; and a controller 110 in communication with the memory. The controller is configured to: receive load information (load sensor 111) which relates to a load on the tyre; receive pressure information (pressure sensor 112) which relates to a pressure of the tyre; and determine a deflection of the tyre based on the received load information, the received pressure information, and the stored tyre behaviour information.
