Narrative:

Aircraft dispatched with MEL xx-Y (antiskid inoperative). Normal approach, normal landing. Aircraft speed 60-70 KTS, thrust reverser stowed. Landed runway 21R in dtw, planning 'Y8' turnoff. Then tower asked for 'Y9 high speed' considering that we are slowed to approximately 70 KTS and only 76000 pounds landing weight. I added a little more braking to make high speed. All appeared normal until we heard and felt both left main tires blow on the high speed. We stopped on 'Y9' high speed just short of taxiway Y. We advised passenger to remain seated and kept them updated on our situation. Maintenance arrived at aircraft. They pinned the gear.

Title: A DC9 WAS DISPATCHED WITH THE MAIN GEAR ANTISKID SYS INOP AND, ON LNDG ROLLOUT WHEN BRAKING FOR A HIGH SPD TURNOFF BLEW THE L MAIN GEAR TIRES.

Narrative: ACFT DISPATCHED WITH MEL XX-Y (ANTISKID INOP). NORMAL APCH, NORMAL LNDG. ACFT SPD 60-70 KTS, THRUST REVERSER STOWED. LANDED RWY 21R IN DTW, PLANNING 'Y8' TURNOFF. THEN TWR ASKED FOR 'Y9 HIGH SPD' CONSIDERING THAT WE ARE SLOWED TO APPROX 70 KTS AND ONLY 76000 LBS LNDG WT. I ADDED A LITTLE MORE BRAKING TO MAKE HIGH SPD. ALL APPEARED NORMAL UNTIL WE HEARD AND FELT BOTH L MAIN TIRES BLOW ON THE HIGH SPD. WE STOPPED ON 'Y9' HIGH SPD JUST SHORT OF TXWY Y. WE ADVISED PAX TO REMAIN SEATED AND KEPT THEM UPDATED ON OUR SIT. MAINT ARRIVED AT ACFT. THEY PINNED THE GEAR.
