they should all be the same height on those toms..

they will usually list the rates on them so decide if you want the larger rates up front or not

If you're not gonna do autocross or anything (or don't want a surprise in the winter) put the higher rate ones in the front. I have 400fr and 500rr in mine... if I was just driving it on the street I would put a 350 in the rear.
