A wheel holder (1) for clamping attachment to a wheel (9), in particular to a wheel (9) of a motor vehicle, and for attaching a target (5) for vehicle wheel alignment measurement, comprises a base body (10) having a central portion and at least two, in particular three, arms (22, 23, 24) extending radially outwards from the central portion of the base body (10). Each of the arms (22, 23, 24) has a movable element (32a, 33a, 34a) which is movable relative to the base body (10) in the radial direction in order to vary the length of the arm (22, 23, 24) in the radial direction; a pressure element (52, 53, 54), in particular a compression spring, which is arranged and adapted to push the movable element (32a, 33a, 34a) outward in radial direction; and a traction element (62, 63, 63) mechanically coupled to the moveble element (32a, 33a, 34a) and arranged and adapted to pull the movable element (32a, 33a, 34a) inward in radial direction. The wheel holder (1) further comprises a coupling element (60) that mechanically couples the traction elements (62, 63, 63) of the at least two arms (22, 23, 24) to each other.
