That is 100% correct. The only way tires effect wheel hop is as you describe. If they are too slippery no hop.
A combo of Whiteline cradle bushings and the AAD set of arms (thus changing all the control arm bushings also) will fix 90% of wheel hop. That recommendation makes the car ride BETTER and DOES NOT increase NVH. I have done it to two Hellcats now. Don’t believe me and my Redeye is available for demo rides to prove my point.
