Typically front are taller. I found when I had front and back the same height it felt a little heavy in front.

Stock is 21" front and 20" rear, so it is made to have the front just a little higher than the back....so that should suggest 23".

All these tires are to big and heavy for the little YFZ. You trying to turn it into a utility clunker????

I agree with recon on this. You'll have to adjust gearing otherwise it'll be so high geared you'll have trouble even taking off.
