I wonder if that's car-dependent. An E36 race car I ran had spring rates of:

F – 1,599#
R – 343#.

The front anti-roll bar was hollow and 1½" in diameter w/6 holes of adjustment, while the rear bar was 1" in diameter w/no adjustment. Each one-hole adjustment of the front bar made a significant difference.

I didn't watch the video, but I think that E36 had a very "flat ride".
