An apparatus for determining a road-wheel vibration for an automotive vehicle comprises wheel-speed sensors for detecting wheel speeds of each of road wheels, and a control unit which is configured to be electrically connected to the wheel-speed sensors for processing a wheel-speed data signal detected from each of the wheel-speed sensors. The control unit comprises a wheel acceleration calculating section for calculating a wheel acceleration and a wheel deceleration of each of the road wheels based on the wheel-speed data signal, a wheel acceleration cycle calculating section for calculating a wheel acceleration cycle of each of the road wheels, a vehicle deceleration calculating section for calculating a vehicle deceleration, a vibration detecting section for detecting a road-wheel vibration of the road wheel based on at least the wheel acceleration cycle, and a vibration determining section for determining whether the road-wheel vibration is caused by a bad road surface condition, or the road-wheel vibration is caused by a drive-train vibration of the automotive vehicle, based on the vehicle deceleration.
