If your not towing and not loaded up, wont these raise the ride height due to being stiffer?

Maybe, but I wouldn't thought it would be a huge amount. Depends on what wheels you have too. 13" and it would look OK.
Let's face it the original shocks are really poor, especially if you have rear occupants, and they are over 10 stone! The Viva always looked as if it needed lifting from the gutter too.

I fitted heavy duty shocks which raised it a little but I don't notice it now its all settled in. It made a HUGE difference though going over speed bumps and road kills and the like.
