Narrative:
The flight appeared normal until landing at ZZZ; when both left main tires blew. Following is a synopsis of what happened. As we departed from ZZZ1; and put on the main air valves; we noticed we smelled something like asphalt. There is current construction on a new taxiway at ZZZ1; so we thought the smell was attributed to that. The flight over to ZZZ was uneventful until touchdown. We made a normal approach; except we carried an extra 10 KTS because of a gust factor. As soon as we touched down; the plane shuddered badly and began pulling off to the left of the runway. We deployed lift dump and reverse thrust. I used the tiller to bring it back to the centerline. We managed to bring the plane to a stop; a taxiway off from runway xx. I shut the left engine down. Captain got out to inspect what was wrong and confirmed that both left main tires had blown. Captain asked to get in the left seat; started up the left engine and taxied the remaining 30 ft to clear the runway; then shut down both engines. The airport operations manager drove down the runway and brought us 2 pieces of tire; and said we had run approximately 1 ft off the runway; then back onto the runway; but meanwhile had knocked down a taxi light. We confirmed that the light had hit the left flap; made a dent and a hole in the flap. Although I feel we handled this emergency very well as a team; if I had it to do over again; I would dispatch the fire trucks and do an emergency evacuate/evacuation. Fortunately; we didn't need the trucks.

Title: HAWKER 800 FLT CREW EXPERIENCES TWO LEFT MAIN TIRE FAILURES AND A SUBSEQUENT RWY EXCURSION; DAMAGING THE LEFT FLAP ON A TAXIWAY LIGHT.
Narrative: THE FLT APPEARED NORMAL UNTIL LNDG AT ZZZ; WHEN BOTH L MAIN TIRES BLEW. FOLLOWING IS A SYNOPSIS OF WHAT HAPPENED. AS WE DEPARTED FROM ZZZ1; AND PUT ON THE MAIN AIR VALVES; WE NOTICED WE SMELLED SOMETHING LIKE ASPHALT. THERE IS CURRENT CONSTRUCTION ON A NEW TXWY AT ZZZ1; SO WE THOUGHT THE SMELL WAS ATTRIBUTED TO THAT. THE FLT OVER TO ZZZ WAS UNEVENTFUL UNTIL TOUCHDOWN. WE MADE A NORMAL APCH; EXCEPT WE CARRIED AN EXTRA 10 KTS BECAUSE OF A GUST FACTOR. AS SOON AS WE TOUCHED DOWN; THE PLANE SHUDDERED BADLY AND BEGAN PULLING OFF TO THE L OF THE RWY. WE DEPLOYED LIFT DUMP AND REVERSE THRUST. I USED THE TILLER TO BRING IT BACK TO THE CTRLINE. WE MANAGED TO BRING THE PLANE TO A STOP; A TXWY OFF FROM RWY XX. I SHUT THE L ENG DOWN. CAPT GOT OUT TO INSPECT WHAT WAS WRONG AND CONFIRMED THAT BOTH L MAIN TIRES HAD BLOWN. CAPT ASKED TO GET IN THE L SEAT; STARTED UP THE L ENG AND TAXIED THE REMAINING 30 FT TO CLR THE RWY; THEN SHUT DOWN BOTH ENGS. THE ARPT OPS MGR DROVE DOWN THE RWY AND BROUGHT US 2 PIECES OF TIRE; AND SAID WE HAD RUN APPROX 1 FT OFF THE RWY; THEN BACK ONTO THE RWY; BUT MEANWHILE HAD KNOCKED DOWN A TAXI LIGHT. WE CONFIRMED THAT THE LIGHT HAD HIT THE L FLAP; MADE A DENT AND A HOLE IN THE FLAP. ALTHOUGH I FEEL WE HANDLED THIS EMER VERY WELL AS A TEAM; IF I HAD IT TO DO OVER AGAIN; I WOULD DISPATCH THE FIRE TRUCKS AND DO AN EMER EVAC. FORTUNATELY; WE DIDN'T NEED THE TRUCKS.
