I've fitted the medium-wire pair, with standard shocks. The ride height unloaded is an inch higher, and they don't sag if I sit on the boot lip.

It's interesting that the old springs have both thinner wire and only 7 free turns of coil instead of 8. Uncompressed they are the same length as the new. So it's obvious how much depends on the shock absorbers themselves providing suspension lift. Mine had none at all - the plunger just pulls in and out easily and does nothing.
