Look familiar?
Plenty more pictures on Google.

As others have said that is damage caused by under inflation.
I bet once the tyre has been removed the inside will look like this:
Fragments of rubber everywhere.

No that doesnt look familiar. As stated previously this is two tyres together. If ot was underinflated (as shown in the link you have polrovided) the edges would be all rough and crooked. This is a perfectly straight line on both sides of the entire wheel and in one place it has come apart.
I am a passenger in the car every morning and would have heard the noise of a flat/underinflated tyre.

Can't decide if you are being funny or stupid. I am a passenger in the car every morning and would have heard the noise of a flat/underinflated tyre.
I can see what you are all saying now but have never seen this before. I found it incomprehensible that someone would stick rubber to the edge of a tyre and for what gain! But that is what it looks like to a tyre novice which I clearly am. I guess I find it hardest to accept that my step daughter has driven on that tyre so under inflated that it would do that sort of damage! I am not normally this slow on the uptake but at least I have amused you all tonight with my ignorance

Don't worry, it could have gone considerably worse, check the "ambiwlans" thread!!!I'd check the other tyres on your step daughters car with a pressure gauge and check the owners handbook to see what the correct pressure should be.
