A flat tire's sprite.
Tires are somewhat rare items usually found in Donkey Kong Country and Donkey Kong Land. They both have the same abilities in both games. Tires here are quite bouncy, allowing for greater height, often to get bonuses or items. Round tires can be moved by walking into them, while grounded half-tires cannot be moved at all. Round tires can sometime be found floating in air. Tires later reappear in Jungle Jinx, a stage of Lost World, only much larger, and get better height, but can also be dangerous if a rolling tire squishes a Kong. Their latest appearance was DK Jungle Climber, where they can in several colors can floated, often used for getting DK Coins.
