Please help, 2 main questions!!!
1.) My left front tire is wearing unevenly...outside tread near gone while rest of tire's fine... do ya think it's tire balance, alignment, or a balljoint???
2.) I have 2 stripped lugnuts on the same wheel...any idea how to change them/get em out? And it it possible to drive short distances on 3 nuts? Sorry, I know a lil about cars, but have never had this problem, and have no idea how to change the bolts/get the bols out of the nuts. Is it even possible? or do i need a whole new wheel?
Thanks for the help.

I hade the same problem with my alignment to, its the camber setting on strut, on the bolt head you will see 5 markings and on the strut you will see an arrow align the center marking and for the lugs take off brake callupers,rotors and bang the lugs out with a big hamer.
Jack up the car, properly support it, and see if you can wiggle the wheel from top to bottom. If can, that is normally a sign of a worn ball joint. Then I would get an alignment. They are relatively inexpensive.
What wheel has the stripped lugs? You can drive on 3, but I wouldn't recommend taking any fast corners or erratic driving.
