## Discrepancy

AIRCRAFT WAS GROUNDED: UPON LANDING, RIGHT BRAKES IMMEDIATELY GOT HOT.  RIGHT SIDE SEEMED TO SHUDDER AS WELL. FIRE, TRUCKS REPORTED RIGHT SIDE WAS HOT, BUT AS WE TAXIED IN, FIRE TRUCKS REPORTED SEEING SHUDDERS FROM LEFT MAIN WHEELS. MAINTENANCE FOUND WHEEL TIE BOLT SHEARED ON THE NR 2 WHEEL WHICH CAUSED SEVERE DAMGE TO THE WHEEL AND BRAKE ASSEMBLY. MAINTENANCE REPLACED THE NR 2 BRAKE ALONG WITH THE NR 2 WHEEL AND TIRE ASSEMBLY. A SATISFACTORY OPS CHECK WAS ACCOMPLISHED WITH NO ISSUES NOTED.
