[We had] day VMC light winds and a normal stabilized approach and touchdown on the fixed distance markers. During rollout; Tower advised that smoke was coming from right main strut area; cleared runway and Tower advised that smoke had dissipated. Suspected the non-normal light winds as a contributing factor to Tower's observation. Captain continued taxi to gate with CFR vehicles in proximity. CFR personnel kept rampers clear of right main landing gear. Once at the gate; First Officer inspected (from a safe distance) the right main gear and found right rear tire deflated. The pre-flight inspection was normal; approach and landing normal. The tire and wheel assembly appeared normal (except for the obvious deflation) on the post-flight. I'm not really sure what happened to cause this problem.
The wind upon landing was light and the aircraft braking was not significant. Auto brakes 2 were set for landing. Also after we arrived at gate Fire Chief reported no sign of excess heat but right rear main tire appeared low.
B767-300ER flight crew reported failure of a main gear tire after a normal landing with light braking.
