Yup. That part's supposed to swivel back and forth with the steering, not spin all the way round with the tire. Looks like they messed up the rig a little bit, got it parented to the wrong bone.

Noticed this still hasn't been fixed so I decided to have a closer look at the .mu file and see what I could figure out. I don't have access to your original Unity scene, so I can't be 100% sure this a complete solution, but it LOOKS like the problem is fixable by just moving a couple things around in the hierarchy. As it stands currently, "mesh" (the tire mesh) is a child of "wheel" (the spinny bit that's not supposed to be spinny), which is a child of "WheelPivot", which is a child of "SteeringPivot". The animation error can be fixed by reordering things so that "mesh" is instead a child of "WheelPivot", and "wheel" and "WheelPivot" are both children of "SteeringPivot". I'll attach a couple images to try and illustrate what I'm talking about.
