ACR\'s and Jack hammer like wheel hop?

My 2000 ACR has wheel hop like no other car I have ever felt. Is this norm for ACR's? or do I have something busted? is there a shock setting that helps with the wheel hop? I have tried hard, and soft, and still the Wheel hop is there, even in 2ns, and 3rd gear when shifting hard. I have even tried 3 different tires now (the stock 335/30R18 sports, 335/30R18's BFG comps, and now 345/35R18 sports these 345's hook allot better, but when thy do spin the jack-hammer is still there.


PS who wants to buy a set of 335/30R18 comp TA's with less than 1000 miles on them?

I have heard that rear wheel alignment specs can cause some of this. Anyone have details. I'd guess harder bushings if anyone makes them would also help. I think a general deflection and alignment change under heavy load is responsible.
