Both crewmembers noticed a slightly heavier than normal vibration from the landing gear on takeoff; but not enough for any concern. No EICAS warnings observed in the cockpit; and all en route operations were normal. Take Off Gross Weight (TOGW) 380; flap setting 6 degrees. Landing Gear Weight (LGW) was 327; flaps 35 degrees. Only a very slight vibration was noted on landing; roll out and taxi into the ramp was normal. On block in the maintenance personnel informed us the number 6 tire was blown; there was tread separation and damage to the left inboard flap section.
