On my 400ex now I have a 16 front sprocket and 18" tires in the back. If I go to 20" tires in the back and 15 front sprocket, will the gearing be the same? or more top or bottom?

Its should be about the same. When I put my 18's on I use a 15t sprocket, and I use a 14t sprocket for the 20's, and It fells about the same.
