A rotational torque inspection method for a bearing device for a vehicle wheel including: an outer member having a plurality of rows of outer raceway surfaces on an inner periphery; an inner member including a hub ring having a small-diameter step portion extending in an axial direction on an outer periphery and an inner ring press-fitted into the small-diameter step portion of the hub ring , the inner member having a plurality of rows of inner raceway surfaces facing the plurality of rows of outer raceway surfaces ; and a plurality of rows of rolling bodies rollably accommodated between both raceway surfaces of the outer member and the inner member, the rotational torque inspection method comprising: a press-fitting step (S02) of press-fitting the inner ring into the small-diameter step portion of the hub ring to a position where the inner ring abuts on the hub ring in the axial direction; and a post-press-fitting rotational torque measurement step (S04) of measuring post-press-fitting rotational torque (T1) of the bearing device for a vehicle wheel when the inner member and the outer member are relatively rotated after the press-fitting step(S02), characterized by a post-press-fitting rotational torque determination step (S05) of determining appropriateness or inappropriateness of the post-press-fitting rotational torque (T1) depending on whether or not the post-press-fitting rotational torque (T1) measured in the post-press-fitting rotational torque measurement step falls within a range of a reference value (S1), wherein in the post-press-fitting rotational torque measurement step (S04), the rotational torque (T1) is measured by relatively rotating the inner member and the outer member at a rotational speed between 10 rotations/min and 30 rotations/min. an outer member having a plurality of rows of outer raceway surfaces on an inner periphery; an inner member including a hub ring having a small-diameter step portion extending in an axial direction on an outer periphery and an inner ring press-fitted into the small-diameter step portion of the hub ring , the inner member having a plurality of rows of inner raceway surfaces facing the plurality of rows of outer raceway surfaces ; and a plurality of rows of rolling bodies rollably accommodated between both raceway surfaces of the outer member and the inner member, a press-fitting step (S02) of press-fitting the inner ring into the small-diameter step portion of the hub ring to a position where the inner ring abuts on the hub ring in the axial direction; and a post-press-fitting rotational torque measurement step (S04) of measuring post-press-fitting rotational torque (T1) of the bearing device for a vehicle wheel when the inner member and the outer member are relatively rotated after the press-fitting step(S02), characterized by a post-press-fitting rotational torque determination step (S05) of determining appropriateness or inappropriateness of the post-press-fitting rotational torque (T1) depending on whether or not the post-press-fitting rotational torque (T1) measured in the post-press-fitting rotational torque measurement step falls within a range of a reference value (S1), wherein in the post-press-fitting rotational torque measurement step (S04), the rotational torque (T1) is measured by relatively rotating the inner member and the outer member at a rotational speed between 10 rotations/min and 30 rotations/min. <EOS>
