Tire Shake/Wheel Hop
Hey all,
My tires ands suspension are bone stock on my Manual GT and lately (I think the cold has alot to do with it), whenever the wheels spin they hop horribly and I have to let off the gas for fear of the whole thing shaking apart. Does this happen to anyone else? Sometimes the wheels will just spin but it seems that most times the just start hopping. I was wondering if maybe I have something out of alignment or not balanced correctly.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

What you need there caller are lower control arms... Fixed most of my problem but sometimes still get a couple quick hops just as gets traction. Pretty common and lots of threads/advice here.... search LCA's
