Default Bald Right Tire, Please Help!

Hi all. My rear right tire is bald and I replaced it three months ago. The left tire is perfect. I also got an allignment after I changed them. The problem started a while ago when I got a flat tire on the rear right and made the mistake of putting the spare tire back there. I replace the tires and got an allignment and it felt strange. Like when I hit a small bump in the road the rear would pull to the right. I got the allignment done again and had them check the bushings. They said everything was fine but the car still didn 't feel normal. I walked outside this morning and saw that the rear right tire was bald so it's not in my head, something is wrong. I was thinking maybe the shocks but I called the dealership and they said that since the inner part of the tire is more bald then it must be an allignment issue. Could I have damaged the differential with the spare tire on the back and this be causing the problem, or maybe the bearings? If anyone has any adivice please help, thanks!!

the wheel bearing probably went bad...

when mine was starting to go out, my tire started wearing out more on that side then the side with the good wheel bearing.
