Narrative:
We accomplished a normal landing and normal rollout in clt after a flight from orf. As we taxied clear of the runway the ground controller advised that a light aircraft reported a possible blown tire or smoke from around the area of the right main gear. The controller could not confirm this report. We stopped on the taxiway and as a precaution requested the rescue equipment. The first officer opened the boarding door and inspected the gear. No sign of fire was found. As a further precaution we were towed to the gate. No further incident.
