I have found this, to one extent or another, with each of the three 9000s I've had. With mediocre tyres, they will spin. With grippy tyres which won't spin, if the suspension's not up to keeping them on the ground, they will hop. I had this on my Aero until I fitted new (OEM) rear bushes.
I'll bet you get lots of torque steer, too. I get absolutely none on my Aero now with poly bushes, Abbott suspension kit and Bridgestone S-03s. Decent shocks, new OEM bushes and decent tyres should be enough to eliminate it, assuming steering components are in good order.
