Narrative:

We were conducting a maximum gross weight takeoff from runway 17L in den. During the takeoff roll we aborted the takeoff due to a #2 engine fuel filter bypass light with master caution. Takeoff weight was 129.7 pounds; speeds were V1 163 KTS; vr 166 KTS; V2 170 KTS. Abort was initiated at approximately 130 KTS. We consulted the brake cooling chart and determined they were in the fuse plug melt zone. Maintenance was contacted and expressed their wishes that we taxi to the gate. Brakes were never set and all 4 tires deflated either approaching the gate or at gate. Dispatch and the flight office were notified. We were debriefed and removed from the trip.
