Well, First of all I will say that the tires are worn. I dont mean like worn I mean WORN. Im getting ready to buy some new ones but I was givin it to it last night and I got alot of wheel hop. I hate wheel hop so bad I cant stand to think of what a strain that puts on the transmission and rear end. However im running 28 pounds in the tires, thats what nissan recomends is 26. could running a little more pressure reduce this. I notice somthing also that was interesting, I tried doing it once and she got hoppin couple times so I went on forward a little to a area with trees covering it and it eat em up. I didnt realize a temp diffrence would change it that much. However the point is dose anyone else have this problem, 2.Would new tires reduce/stop it. 3. Should I raise tire pressure. thanks

Also, When I said strain I know peeling them off is bad enough but I ment like sending that shock thorugh the drivetrain.
