## Discrepancy

AIRCRAFT WAS GROUNDED: DURING POST ARRIVAL WALKAROUND, MAINTENANCE FOUND THE NR 1 AND 2 MAIN LANDING GEAR TIRES BLOWN. AFTER APPLYING POWER TO THE AIRCRAFT IT WAS NOTED THAT THE ECAM WHEEL PAGE REFLECTED BRAKE TEMPS AS FOLLOWS: NR 1 (655), NR 2 (620), NR 3 (420) AND NR 4 (465). BOTH TIRES WERE REPLACED PER AMM 32-41-11 DUE TO THE FUSE PLUG BEING BLOWN DUE TO BEING OVER HEATED. THE NR 1 AND 2 BRAKE ASSEMBLIES WERE REPLACED DUE TO OVER HEATING PER AMM 32-42-27.
