Hit the ground so hard the tires compressed enough to damage the wheels themselves?

Damn. Surprised there aren't considerably more injuries.

Garuda should get a pretty penny from them for the additional damage...just glad that happened during landing and not takeoff.

This was posted somewhere else (I can't remember), but it is certainly appropriate to this discussion.

Another Lion Air plane landed 5 hours later and blew tires because they did not clear the runway of all the fod.
