they'll fit, the fronts we be 1 inch taller and the rear 1 inch shorter than the ones you have now
23 = how tall , 8 = how wide , 10 = wheel diameter

Absolutely not.

Your differential gears are set up for the difference in rotation between two different sized tires. You NEED the smaller tires in front and the larger in back. YOU CAN'T AVOID THIS. Or, you can break stuff. Up to you.

The ratio between the front and rear tires needs to stay within 5% or so of the original factory tires. Calculate it, then you'll know if it's ok.
