Specifically, the inside half of the wheel is not filled in (it's just half a wheel with no cap on the other side), so seed collects in the wheel and pours out 3-4x the normal amount in the area where the wheel is. That can burn out your yard in stripes, or in the best case create stripes of really dark grass (in a bad way)

People have filled the wheels with cardboard or spray foam and say it mostly fixes the problem.
This is just a partial fix. The rotating part of spreader (not sure what it's called but the horizontal disc that catches and spreads the seeds/fertilizer) is lower than the wheel. This causes uneven distribution as the seeds hit the wheel and bounce around.
