Aircraft X was rolling out after having been cleared for the option. Smoke appeared around the aircraft that's cause was initially unclear. ATC was advised and as the aircraft continued to roll it became unclear as to whether it would be able to stop on the runway due to having damaged rear tires. The newly constructed hangar was a factor as it started to obscure the aircraft as it was slowing down. Eventually it did stop on the runway but was unable to exit; and was partially blocked from view. Allow for complete visibility of the departure end of the runway.
Tower Local Controller reported an aircraft landed with 'damaged tires' and they could not determine if the aircraft went off the end of the runway because their view of the runway is blocked by a new hangar.
