"When the wheels are extended the heavy part of the wheel falls to the bottom. When it makes contact with the runway the same part of the wheel is the first bit to be worn every time and it just gets worse and worse until the wheel is changed".

Think about this statement. If it was true, which it isnt, the worn part would be at the top and the side with the most thread would be the first to touch the runway.
