Not necessarily.

For instance, in theory, an upper strut tower brace will keep the top of your struts from flexing outward, causing positive camber gain (and thus, loss of front traction and understeer).

I don't think the power brace or fender braces will add so much rigidity as to increase the effective spring rate of the front of the car THAT much.
