Narrative:

Weather posed no particular challenges for the flight. After vectors off the arrival we flew the 4R ILS. Weather was as reported and I confirmed the runway in sight at around 600 AGL or so. We had briefed and were conscious of the challenges that are present by the short runways and cramped conditions at this airport and as such my focus was on good speed control and an accurate touchdown. The other captain called ref-5 just before touchdown and we landed around the one thousand foot markers. Immediately; the other captain noticed a lack of deceleration and called it out; whilst I noticed that the otherwise highly effective brakes were not responding at all. At the same time I did not feel much deceleration from the thrust reversers and tried repeatedly to deploy them. Knowing from training that the thrust reversers are not highly effective and that the brakes are the primary stopping power in this airplane; my focus tended towards the application of the emergency brake system and keeping the airplane on the centerline and under control. At some point it became quite clear that we were not going to stop within the paved runway area and the calculated application of the emergency brakes was no longer possible. One or more tires blew out; most probably the right side; and the aircraft started to skid with the final result being four blown out main tires. The other captain declared an emergency and we shut down the aircraft. Two inboard tires were fitted to the main wheel assemblies and the aircraft was towed to the FBO. In hindsight better coordination of the usage of brakes and emergency brakes would have been of benefit to us in dealing with this difficult situation.

Title: The Flight Crew lost control of their G200 on the landing roll on a short runway. Utilized maximum braking and employed the emergency brake; ultimately resulting in the failure of all four main gear tires.
