Is the Bearclaw a front or rear tire?

This size is intended for front axle use. Kenda lists the Bearclaw line for both, so match the size and axle position to your machine.

Does it fit my ATV wheel?

It fits 11-inch diameter wheels in the 23x8.00-11 size. Check your machine's stock size and clearance before buying.

How does it handle mud compared with a dedicated mud tire?

It clears mud well for an all-terrain tire, but a dedicated mud tire with taller lugs will pull harder in deep gumbo.

Will it work on pavement?

It can be ridden on pavement, but expect noise and faster wear. It is built for dirt, not roads.

What does 6 ply mean here?

Six-ply construction gives a thicker, stiffer casing that resists punctures and holds shape under load, at the cost of a firmer ride.
