I have a 02 Civic EX. When practicing my launch, I experience some madd wheel hop. Does anyone else get wheel hop? Any advice on treating this problem?

ya simple, its called get some real tires....

as much as i dont like firestones, one of my buddys got the firehawk SZ50EP's on his prelude and these things are incredible!!!!!
especially in the rain, i cant drive behind him sometimes cuz of the mad spray comming of these things, he can take turns like its dry with these things!

what do you expect when its raining, coefficient of friction is reduced and tires will struggle more to get grip?

on a different note:

i was looking at the tire rack site it the stupidity of some people kills me
they buy summer performance tires and then complain about how bad they are in the snow....likewhy are people so retarded!

I understand that there is going to be less traction and more compensation on a wet surface BUT I have never driven a car that does this. We have a 2000 civic with the same tires as are on the 2k1 and the 2000 doesn't do it.
