Monster (tire)

Template:Articleabout Template:Kart-infobox The Monster tires are a set of default tires in Mario Kart 7. Its design is almost exactly the same as the tires on the Tiny Titan, from Mario Kart Wii. They offer good speed, weight, and off-road, while hindering the acceleration and handling stats. In fact, the Monster tires offer the highest weight boost, the lowest acceleration boost, and are tied with the Red Monster tires for the best off-road boost. They're also tied with the Red Monster tires, the Slick tires, and the Gold Tires, for the lowest handling boost.

The Monster tires also appear in Mario Kart 8. They look slightly different than they do in Mario Kart 7, which also applies to the stats that they alter. The Hot Monster tires serve as the counterpart to the Monster tires in this game.
