Wood

The Wood tires are a set of unlockable wheels in this game. Although they may seem inconvenient, the Wood tires actually offer a good boost of acceleration and handling, but a bad boost of speed and weight. The wooden wheels are the only set of wheels that have to offer a handling boost, but no off-road boost. The wheels of the DK Jumbo kart from Mario Kart: Double Dash!! have a similar appearance to the Wood tires. However, unlike the wooden tires, the DK Jumbo offers much less acceleration.
