Aircraft
Taxi out to the runway was normal. We received our takeoff clearance and applied takeoff power. Around 80 KTS felt a vibration and unusual noise. Around 110 KTS the takeoff was aborted. We reported the rejected takeoff to ATC; exited the runway and parked the airplane. [We] ran the QRH for rejected takeoff; contacted Maintenance and Operations. Airport Operations came out to the airplane and told us over the radio that both nose tires were blown. Eventually we were towed back to the gate with an electro tug.I wasn't the pilot flying; but the Captain said the aircraft's direction was difficult to control. He rejected the takeoff because the vibration and unusual noise became progressively worse. Runway centerline was maintained throughout the reject procedure.
A CRJ-200 flight crew rejected their takeoff when both nose gear tires failed.
