Wheel hop and traction issues
Been having some nasty wheel hop and traction problems off the line. I tried higher quality and fatter nitto tires on the back but still no fix. Would lower control arms and springs eliminate the problem?

Upper trailing arm and lower control arms will help. I had the same issue and I added these two things, and the wheel hop was completely removed, entirely. Here's what I use on my car:
Hotchkis Sport Suspension Adjustable Upper Trailing Arms 2011-13 Mustang
Hotchkis Sport Suspension Lower Trailing Arms Mustang
I've got other options other than Hotchkis of course, but this is what I use on my own 2013 GT.

Skip to about one minute in to see the action start, you'll see what's going on.

[QUOTE=ModBargains;8345051]Watch this video, trust me, you want an upper trailing arm to go along with it, that's where the problem is. With new springs and dampers, you're basically using western medicine and controlling the symptoms but not controlling or ending the actual source of the problem. Check this video out, you'll see exactly what I'm talking about:

I do actually. This one uses a BMR product, but of course all the ones you can find on the market will work similarly well for the most part.
