The Slim tires are, in a way, a less extreme version of the [[Roller]] tires. They provide a small boost to acceleration and a better one to handling (tied with the [[Wood]] and the [[Mushroom (tire)|Mushroom]] tires) while hindering speed, weight and off-road. The Slim, Wood, and Roller tires are also the only tires to offer a positive sea handling boost, but the Slim tires do not affect the sea speed stat. | |||

The Slim tires return in ''Mario Kart 8'' and ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', where they | The Slim tires return in ''Mario Kart 8'' and ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', where they look slightly different from their appearance in ''Mario Kart 7'' and are available right from the start. Their stat distribution is also different from ''Mario Kart 7'' in that they boost speed and handling at the expense of some acceleration and traction. There is a variant of the Slim tires called the [[Crimson Slim]] tires that also appear in ''Mario Kart 8'' and ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''. They share stats with the Crimson Slim and the [[Triforce Tires]] that come with the [[The Legend of Zelda x Mario Kart 8|''The Legend of Zelda'' × ''Mario Kart 8'']] DLC pack. | ||
CPU players tend to only use these tires whenever they are using the [[Standard Bike]]; this applies to all medium-sized characters, the lightweight [[Larry Koopa|Larry]] and [[Wendy O. Koopa|Wendy]], and the heavyweight [[Link]]. However, a CPU-controlled [[Luigi]] will also use these tires alongside the [[Mach 8]] kart body. Likewise, a CPU-controlled [[Mario]] will use these tires whenever he is using the [[Comet (bike)|Comet]] bike body. Additionally, a CPU [[Waluigi]] will occasionally pair the Standard Bike with Slim tires. | |||
In ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', the Slim tires have slightly different stats, and while they still have the same stats as the Crimson Slim tires, they now share their stats with the [[Wood]] tires instead of the Triforce Tires. | In ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', the Slim tires have slightly different stats, and while they still have the same stats as the Crimson Slim tires, they now share their stats with the [[Wood]] tires instead of the Triforce Tires. | ||
