Take a look at the side view photo of the blown tire. The bearing circlip is popped off and there is no hubcap bolts missing ???
No hubcap no anti skid ( non or a lot of brake ) ?

I Presume the crew did not remove it in that position so who changed the wheel in BNE

Do you think the tire was deflating ( or was at 80psi shipping pressure ) on departure it has run a lot more than just the touchdown looking at the wear on the sidewall, look how much the sidewall rubber is worn around the hub and it is a new looking tire, seems to have blown out the side.

Can some technical people take a look and advise, I know tires get real hot when under (psi) serviced at high aircraft weights ????
