Body roll in and of itself isn't necessarily a bad thing, it is the loss of control of wheel motion and transient behavior that is the problem. I have always thought BP looked undersprung in pictures, but you are bumping into the physics of the situation with regard to CG heights and wheel/ground clearance. Your spring rates are not excessively high now, it certainly wouldn't hurt to try upping them and seeing how it does.
