Yes and no. A good sampling of standard fret wires can be found here:
https://www.lmii.com/35-fretwire. Note that the difference between the shortest (.035") and the tallest (.057") is .018" (about 1/64"). So, going from the tallest fret wire to the shortest will make the action seem .018" higher.
"Refined" players will notice the difference, many will likely not. If possible, the action, at both nut and saddle, should be altered to suit the new fret height.

What fret size do you recommend?

I recommend whatever you prefer, what feels best to you. I like short (.035"), narrow frets. Just because that's what I prefer doesn't mean that you will.
