## Discrepancy

A LANDING GEAR/WHEEL TYPE SPEED RELATED VIBRATION WAS REPORTED BY THE FLIGHT CREW.  INVESTIGATION REVEALED A BUMPED OUT AREA OF TREAD ON THE RIGHT OUTBOARD MAIN TIRE.  THE AREA WAS APPROX  9 INCHES LONG PLUS THE TIRE WIDTH OF THE TREAD AREA.  THAT AREA WAS .1875 TO .2500 HIGHER THAN THE REST OF THE TIRE TREAD. REMOVED AND REPLACED TIRE.  CORRECTED PROBLEM.
