It's my understanding that a lot of Boeing's woes come from outsourcing and not verifying that parts are up to snuff.
WendoverProductions did a great video on why Boeing sucks these days. They essentially cut as many corners as possible and are still looking for more to cut.
The Boeing CEO at one point even said he succeeded in his goal of making Boeing profit-driven instead of engineering-driven.
These problems will only get worse as the disparity in wealth continues to grow.
In this case the tires may have already have been replaced by the airline multiple times. Blaming that on Boeing is ridiculous.
