how do you stop it

Holy Wheel Hop. Anything to mitigate it?

Is there anything that can be done on these cars to mitigate wheel hop? My 07 4cyl 5mt will wheel hop anytime you break traction on a wet road unless one wheel is unloaded making a turn. This is the first car I have ever owned that doesn't just spin a tire or two, and makes it difficult when I...

Like explain a little, how bad? And how often?

Could be motor mounts, control arms. How many miles on it? How hard do you drive it?
Is it the sedan or coupe?

Here someone with 8th gen & wheel hop

First, check the suspension for worn bushings, ball joints, and other components.
Polyurethane suspension bushings will help you eliminate wheel hop while still maintaining some suspension compliance. Sphereical ones like used in the video can transmit A LOT of NVH.

I would go with poly for the motor mounts as well if you were replacing those.

Good info guys I didn’t watch video yet does anyone know where to get stiffer bushing inserts for the control arms? My wheel hop makes my entire first gear useless and it’s only going to get worse once the rest of my mods are installed. 😱

merit: didn’t realize this was 8g discussion they got a good amount of options for 8g guys and 9g get shafted again.

IMO the car shouldn't need anything harder than OEM bushings to control wheel hop. Haven't had 8G V6 but 3G TL and my Accord is 4cyl.

And I haven't heard of ADUS before but if their fitment information is correct, you can use anything that fits 7G US Accord / Euro Accord (TSX) AND 8G accord and 2G TSX. That's interesting.
