mayb he didnt do so... in fact, most people wont mess with the wheel if there is no problem.... swapping ur tyres every 10k km is recommended, but not compulsory..... mostly. they'll jz wait till the tyres become botak only swap....

Won't the axles be damaged as a result of the tyres flying out? If you watched Top Gear, there's an episode where they switched from a Suzuki Liana to a Chevrolet Lacetti in the segment "Star in a reasonably priced car". There they replayed a scene when a wheel came off the Liana and the damage was quite severe.
 
for tat storm i duno lah, but for my fren... lower arm damaged, shaft joint damage, and nid alignment
