## Discrepancy

ON LANDING, THE NLG, NR 2 WHEEL ASSY, INNER WHEEL RIM-BEAD SEPARATED FROM THE RIM ASSY.  THE NR 2 NLG TIRE MAINTAINED AIR PRESSURE AND THE ACFT TAXIED FROM THE LANDING RUNWAY TO PARKING UNDER ITS OWN POWER.  AFTER PARKING THE CREW DISCOVERED A DENT IN THE LT WING INBD L/E SLAT AND A SCRATCH IN THE PAINT ON THE LT WING T/E INBOARD FLAP, LOWER SKIN SURFACE.  THE CREW NOTIFIED THE TOWER AND ALL OF THE NLG WHEEL PIECES WERE RECOVERED FROM THE RUNWAY.  SPECIFIC FAILURE: THE BEAD OF THE TIRE RIM FAILED AND 75 PERCENT OF THE RIM SEPARATED FROM THE RIM.
