Crepello, did you have full flaps down or was the landing with partial flap or flapless? I'm just thinking of approach speed etc...

It is very easy to lock the wheels out if you brake hard in most types. Anyone who has flown enough will have experienced this.

This can easily result in flat-spotting or worse bursting a tyre.

Don't worry about today, no harm done, could have been worse etc...

Next time take your time, the other guy can go around or avoid you if necessary, if you are landing then you have priority.
