Narrative:

Flight las-pit. Takeoff roll began at approximately XX40 EST. At 80 KTS IAS I released the nose wheel steering. Power ok, roll ok. At approximately 100 KIAS rumbling and shaking began. Rejected takeoff procedures in effect. Rejected takeoff/autobrake, reverse ok. Very slight pull to the right. Stopped fairly centered on runway. Notified tower and taxied clear of runway with a slight wobble. No excessive power on taxiway noted aircraft listing to the right. Suspected right main gear tires blown.
