Its probably a problem with one of the rims/tires themselves. Out of round issue perhaps, maybe a bent rim. Id take it to a tire shop and have them spin them on a balancer while you watch and see if any of the tires/rims are out of round/bent.

Ah, I see what your saying. Sort of like on a pickup truck...due to the lack of weight in the back right? In that case...nevermind.

Re: tire hop

How are you getting tire hop? The only way I can even get my 3.4 to spin when I'm sittin still is to hold down the brake. And note, it only spins the right rear tire. So unless you're trying to do a burnout or something, then you really shouldn't be having any issues with tire hop. Unless of course your pushing out 250+ hp and have upgraded your rear end to a posi unit. Which, if that's the case, then I'm really impressed.
