The '''Gold Tires''' (known as the '''Gold Wheels''' in | The '''Gold Tires''' (known as the '''Gold Wheels''' in Europe and Oceania) are a special set of unlockable tires in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. CPU players never use the Gold Tires, along with the [[Gold Standard]], and the [[Gold Glider]], making these tires player-exclusive. | ||

In '' | In ''Mario Kart 7'', the Gold Tires are unlocked by collecting 15,000 [[coin]]s, or getting at least a one star ranking in all of the GP cups for every engine class. They offer roughly the same stat boosts as the [[Slick]] tires, and they offer the best speed boost, but they also offer the worst off-road boost. However, the Gold Tires give up some more acceleration to enhance weight. Additionally, they're tied with the Slick, [[Monster (tire)|Monster]], and [[Red Monster]], for the weakest handling boost in the game. | ||

They also hinder the air handling stat, making it more difficult to steer while using the glider. Based on stat totals alone, the Gold Tires have the lowest stat total of all the tires in the game. | ||

This [[kart]] gives great speed (the 2nd biggest boost in the game) and good weight, but has a bad handling boost, and abysmal off-road (the smallest boost in the game, which is on par to if the Slick tires were used). | ||

In ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', the Gold Tires' stats are much less balanced than in ''Mario Kart 8'', only boosting ground speed and weight. All the other stats (except water speed) are hindered, with acceleration being hindered the most. The Gold Tires still share their stats with the Metal tires. The player can unlock the Gold Tires by beating all 48 Staff Ghosts in the 150cc Time Trial mode. | In ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', the Gold Tires' stats are much less balanced than in ''Mario Kart 8'', only boosting ground speed and weight.
