Yeah, that has always puzzled me too. This is purely a wild a$$ guess: Perhaps a section of the wheel tread fractured and fell off. The jagged edge dug in more and heated up, shedding off fragments while the other wheel was relatively smooth and just slid along. Because of the equalization in the truck suspension was then screwed up, less weight was transferred to the good wheel. It would have had a flat spot in the tread but nowhere as severe.
