## Discrepancy

DURING PREFLIGHT WALK-AROUND INSPECTION, THE FLIGHT CREW NOTICED THAT THE RIGHT MAIN LANDING GEAR INBOARD WHEEL WAS CRACKED AROUND 50 PERCENT OF THE CIRCUMFERENCE OF THE OUTBOARD WHEEL HALF FLANGE.  THE TIRE STILL HELD AIR PRESSURE.  THE WHEEL WAS REPLACED AND THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO SERVICE.
