Appearances	Mario Kart 7

The Wood tires (also known as Wooden) are a set of unlockable wheels in Mario Kart 7. Although they may seem inconvenient, the Wood tires actually offer a good boost of acceleration and handling, but their speed and weight are hindered. The Wood tires are the only set of wheels to offer a handling boost, but no off-road boost.

Trivia

• The wheels of the DK Jumbo, from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, have a similar appearance to the Wood tires. However, unlike the Wood tires, the DK Jumbo offers much less acceleration.
