In ''Mario Kart 7'', the Slick tires provide the strongest speed boost (tied with the [[Gold Tires]]), while also offering a small weight boost. Their acceleration is hindered slightly, but their handling and off-road are hindered heavily, and their handling is tied with the [[Monster (tire)|Monster]], [[Red Monster]], and Gold Tires for having the weakest handling among all the [[kart]] parts. They are also tied with the Gold Tires for having the worst off-road boost in the game. | In ''Mario Kart 7'', the Slick tires provide the strongest speed boost (tied with the [[Gold Tires]]), while also offering a small weight boost.

When compared to the Gold Tires, the Slick tires are slightly lighter and have much worse sea handling, but have better air handling and acceleration. Also, unlike the Gold Tires, which hinder drifting, the Slick tires boost drifting positively. The Slick tires are the only tires in the game to boost both speed and drift in a positive way, and also are the fastest tires in the game to provide a positive drift boost. | When compared to the Gold Tires, the Slick tires are slightly lighter and have much worse sea handling, but have better air handling and acceleration.
