Narrative:
Normal approach to landing runway 24R yyz. WX clear, runway dry, wind 330 degrees at 10 KTS. At touchdown, went to flight idle, manually extended spoilers. As weight transferred from wings to main gear, felt weight continue down on right main gear wheels. Immediately went full reverse thrust while lowering nose gear to ground for directional control. Blew left main gear tires attempting to remain on runway. Conferred with yyz tower as to possible fire/smoke. They confirmed fire/smoke right side of aircraft, initiated ground evacuate/evacuation.

Title: DURING NORMAL LNDG TIRES BLEW ON R SIDE PROVOKING MAIN TIRE FAILURE ON L SIDE TRYING TO MAINTAIN CTL OF ACFT DURING LNDG ROLLOUT. INDICATIONS OF FIRE PROMPTED PAX EVAC.
Narrative: NORMAL APCH TO LNDG RWY 24R YYZ. WX CLR, RWY DRY, WIND 330 DEGS AT 10 KTS. AT TOUCHDOWN, WENT TO FLT IDLE, MANUALLY EXTENDED SPOILERS. AS WT TRANSFERRED FROM WINGS TO MAIN GEAR, FELT WT CONTINUE DOWN ON R MAIN GEAR WHEELS. IMMEDIATELY WENT FULL REVERSE THRUST WHILE LOWERING NOSE GEAR TO GND FOR DIRECTIONAL CTL. BLEW L MAIN GEAR TIRES ATTEMPTING TO REMAIN ON RWY. CONFERRED WITH YYZ TWR AS TO POSSIBLE FIRE/SMOKE. THEY CONFIRMED FIRE/SMOKE R SIDE OF ACFT, INITIATED GND EVAC.
