The album with the photos of the damages to the runway and a/c,
as well as some documents has been published on the PKBWL (Polish AAIB) page:

http://www.mi.gov.pl/files/0/1792161/2009962A.pdf

1) This album contains pictures provided by the ports and LAX KTW
and made by PKBWL.
2) As part of describing the album contains pictures of damage to wheels wheels
mounted on an airplane (ie, under load) and pictures of disassembled wheel
( made in the hangar). Images depicting a mounted wheel
show the image as to be seen by the pilots.
3) According to Boeing, and the documentation:
â ˘ 737-6/7/8/9 AMM-ILF ILF-D633A102-rev. 40-Oct 15/2009,
â ˘ Task 32-45-00-700-803,
the damages on each damaged tire eliminates it from service.


It seems they were damn lucky to be able to take off from EPKT and
land in EPWA with such damages to wheels and tires without incident...



Also the final report, unfortunately in Polish, but good images and drawings.
