There is not that many tire choices for that rim size.

I can't think of any reason to go bigger. Are you going after a special look ?.

A wider front tire floats more turns less a skinnier tire turns more floats less. I run my ytm through mud holes and want a skinnier tire on the front so I'm not pushing so much mud.

You can get either a 23x8x11 or a 23.5x8x11, I think those are the only two sizes.

I have one of these that came on my 250sx and I liked it so much I put on one my 350x. Both machines steer very well (skinny vs wide). I ride in sand, dirt, and mud. Last year at trike fest I had both machines there and they hooked up pretty well in that snotty clay too.

I second that tire. It's the best one that I've ran on my 350x's also.

X3 on the Kenda 284 Front Max.

I'm running one on my 350X and it's worked well. I ride in the mountains and it's done nicely in snow, rock, dirt and mud. Even cutting trail with 2' of snow. :naughty:
