    I get wheel hop with my F12 when accelerating . . .I have six year old P0's, I wonder if the "wheel hop" problem will be reduced if I get new Michelins . .

    The tires are definitely part of the overall system (effective spring rates, sidewall stiffness, etc).

    Experiment with different tire pressure would be easy to tweak the “tire variable” a bit without going straight to swapping them out.

    However, I would probably change to fresh tires every 5 years anyway since the 4 contact patches are all you have. :)

    Definitely get new tires. I never had this with my F12b.
