That picture doesn't look the same to me. I agree with Racer, the 3 pictures by the OP look like the rubber is worn through to the carcass. Look at the strip of heavy wear on the outer edge. Chunking usually happens with taller tread blocks overheating, his tires don't have any grooves or tread left where the damage is located.
