Narrative:

After a normal approach and touchdown, the right aft tire on #2 main truck blew out. No fire occurred and no evacuate/evacuation was necessary. Postflt inspection revealed a possible locked wheel condition (tire sheared off on one side). Aircraft was landed with the autobrake function selected to the low (#1) position as suggested by company procedure. Tire was replaced before this flight at eddm. Old tire had 'flat spot' according to the logbook entry. I believe this was an incipient antiskid problem. Should have been picked up when the tire was changed in germany, but was not. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: reporter followed up with maintenance and was told a faulty antiskid system was replaced. No further problems have been noted.
