On the stockers I would have never ever ever ever done this deliberately.
I am surprised I never tore up any drive parts of the car with the stock tires because I use to get wheel hop so bad.

hop is a function of tire grip and sidewall stiffness among other things
from about.com
Definition: An undesirable suspension characteristic in which a wheel (or several) moves up and down so violently that it actually leaves the ground. Wheel hop can be caused by many problems, including excessive unsprung weight, insufficient shock damping, or poor torsional axle control..
