Ah yes I haven't checked the tyres out but I sure will do tomorrow, the right side did look close to the limit when I looked the other day (before the problem).

One tyre is a different make but it's the right rear - the one they said had been abused.
I didn't see any signs of a roughed up tyre just very low tread compared to the others which I found strange unless the previous owner has replaced 3 tyres all the same and left this one (the other 3 have more tread).

Has it got a full-size spare tyre? If so, how does the spare look?

You may find that 4 tires were done and the spare was left as is. Doesn't take much for a puncture and the dealers probably never checked it ;)
