Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a wheel stopper which can ensure an occupant space by regulating the movement of a front wheel and decreasing the invading amount of a side frame into the cabin side. SOLUTION: A highly rigid stopper 1 is protruded and fixed at the outer- periphery surface of a side frame 7 disposed near a front wheel 14. A front mount bracket 8 and a cross member 9 are disposed near the stopper 1 to reinforce the stopper 1. In case of vehicle collision, the outer-periphery rear surface 17 of the front wheel 14 hits the stopper 1 and its movement of the stopper 1 is regulated. It is thus possible to suppress the side frame 7 from being deformed to the cabin side.
