FSTB+RSB+FALKENZIEX=no more wheel hop
Well I finally got all my goods on the car and what a difference. No more wheel hop. Huge difference in the rain. No more sitting there smoking up the tires, hooks up and goes. Car really lays down the VQ power now.

Ziex's are a huge improvement over the Pretendza's.

Uh, if the above actually cured your wheelhop that's excellent. But none of the above should make any difference in wheelhop...

The tires should make a difference, by increasing traction. I doubt the other two made a difference.

Tokico Illuminas made a noticeable difference in wheel hop, compared with the same tires... probably because the Illuminas do their part in helping to control the suspension movement, even small ones like wheel hop.
