I eliminated my rear wheel hop before I bought the tires.

Long time no see.

I installed 4.1s and don't even run DRs. I went with GS-D3s from Goodyear. I have ZERO problems with traction. Took 5-6 launches on the street to figure out where I need to be to avoid it. I can spin 2nd easy, but a nice smooth transfer and I hook like a b*tch with the stock suspension.

4.10's aren't as bad as everyone says. Planting the power is easy, if you can drive and you have a nice set of tires, not some 80 buck special at pepboys for tires.

Yea, I've been MIA for while. I got back to my roots [read: 2 wheels or less]. However, I hate unfinished projects, so here I am again[8D].

So far, I've barked'em in 1st-2nd, but I've not heard heard, any spinning from 2nd to 3rd. I can feel the hook, but there is minimum spin. With my stock tires, I could break loose 'in gear' in 1st & shift 1/2 through 3rd gear before my car would hook with the T/C on. Without it was just over 1/2 way in 3rd. Now, there is just hook-up. I wonder how long that'll last...more mods on the way...

Your wheel hop problems are more to do with your suspension than your tires, get some upper and lower control arms and then see if still have wheel hop.

I have Maximum Motorsports UCA's & LCA's on my GT. The UCA's in the catalog are actually FRPP UCA's, but MM still sells them for the same price.
