Narrative:

While landing the right main tire ended up disintegrated. The weather was clear with good visibility and light wind out of the east. Approach was normal down to the runway. At touchdown the speed brakes were deployed and I began to apply brake pressure. I immediately had to release the right side and apply significant left rudder for the remainder of the rollout. The left brake was working and I used it as little as possible to slow the aircraft on the runway. At some point (maybe 80 knots?) the aircraft began to pull hard right. I was able to maintain the aircraft on the runway by using more left rudder and some left brake. The aircraft gave me the feeling that it was on ice at this point with some kind of a 'fish tail' oscillation occurring. As the aircraft slowed it was more stable. As the aircraft got very slow it was fully controllable and I used the remaining momentum [to] roll off the runway onto taxiway. We then ran a normal after landing and shutdown on the taxiway. Upon exiting the aircraft we observed the right main tire was badly damaged and mostly shredded.I am not sure what the cause was. I would guess the tire deflated during flight; or there was FOD on the runway; or there was some kind of a brake/anti-skid malfunction. There were no cautions or warnings indicating any anti-skid issues. Without more information; I am unable to suggest a way to avoid this in the future.
