'''Wheel Mode''' is one of the [[Robobot Armor]] modes. It transforms [[Kirby]]'s mech into a three-wheeled racecar, granting it extra speed and the ability to jump between foreground and background at will, a trait unique to this ability. Due to its use in stages of the game, it cannot be discarded.
