Narrative:
After completing a fish spotting flight, the pilot landed the airplane at the Dillingham Airport. While taxiing back from landing, the pilot applied the brakes. During the deceleration, a tire rotated on the rim shearing the valve stem. The tire and portions of the rim separated from the landing gear and the airplane's wingtip dragged the ground. The airplane was equipped with 8:50 size tires.

Probable Cause: rotation (slippage) of the tire on the rim, and shearing of the valve stem, which allowed the rim to contact the ground and then separate.
