Question Will Eibach spring coilovers + KYB shocks = wheel hop?

I will install KYB adjustable shocks plus coilovers so I can lower my car ~.5 inch. Will this result in wheel hop? I want a stiff suspension but I don't want wheel hop and I want to keep straight line traction....


Thanks!

What exactly do you mean a stiff suspension, 'stiff' and straight line dont go together. Even with my modest 140-160# rear springs, and Koni DAs I had no hook till about second gear, 255 tires in back, 160 treadwear, 411 RW.
