THE PLT REPORTED THAT HE WAS FERRYING THE AIRPLANE TO OBTAIN SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE. UPON ARRIVAL OVER THE ARPT, HE FOUND THAT THE ONLY RWY WAS CLOSED FOR MAINTENANCE. HE THEN ELECTED TO LAND ON A TAXIWAY. HE MADE A SHORT-FIELD LDG AND APPLIED THE BRAKES 'FIRMLY' AFTER TOUCHDOWN. BOTH TIRES BLEW OUT DURING THE LDG ROLL, AND HE LOST CONTROL OF THE ACFT. THE ACFT COLLIDED W/ A PARKED TRUCK AND A FENCE. EXAM OF THE ACFT TIRES REVEALED THAT THEY HAD BLOWN OUT AS A RESULT OF EXCESSIVE BRAKING. THE DISTANCE FROM THE TAXIWAY ENTRANCE AT THE RWY EDGE TO THE TRUCK WAS APPROXIMATELY 500 FT. SEVERAL HANGARS & OTHER OBSTACLES WERE LOCATED OFF THE END OF THE TAXIWAY ALONG THE ACFT'S INITIAL DIRECTION OF TRAVEL. EXAM OF A CESSNA 172N INFO MANUAL REVEALED THAT ABOUT 500 FT WAS REQUIRED FOR THE LDG ROLL GIVEN THE CONDITIONS REPORTED BY THE PLT. A NOTAM (D) WHICH ADVISED OF THE CLOSED RWY WAS ISSUED 2 DAYS EARLIER, AND WAS IN EFFECT AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT.
