A CE560XLS rejected the takeoff due to an acm (air cycle machine) overheat and erratic cabin pressurization indications noted on the takeoff roll. Following the rejection the right main tires deflated due to melted fuse plugs.

Narrative:
I had commenced the take-off roll in ZZZ when my co-pilot called for an abort. Due to the extreme length of the runway; I executed a very gradual deceleration. Upon exiting the runway we came to a complete stop; completed the checklist and discussed our plan of action. We then elected to taxi back to the FBO. Having completed approximately half the taxi back; the nose-wheel pulled the aircraft right of center-line. Feeling at that point we had a main tire deflation; we terminated our taxi; coordinated with tower and shutdown the aircraft. A visual inspection of the main tires confirmed that the thermal fuses had indeed released the pressure in the tires. I then asked airport operations to call fire rescue to come out and monitor the wheels while waiting on maintenance to arrive.
