I drive a 1998 Tiburon. I had some 17's on my car, but recently put my stock 15's back on. One of my studs on the front left hub was all f***** up and I could put another lug on. So I am riding around with just 3 lug nuts on that one wheel. The rest have all four. Here is my problem. When I am driving on the interstate and I hit a dip, it throws my car in a rocking motion. It won't stop until I get my steering wheel lined up in a weird way. Does this have something to do with the alignment? or could only 3 lug nuts make the wheel somehow flex or something? I just got my wheels balanced today hoping to solve the problem, now it seems a little worse, but that could be my imagination. Any advice would be extremely great.

I would go have a new stud put on your hub. Don't risk it.

it's not good riding on 3 lugs.. been there, done that.. .not good. Fix it soon. I'm surprised it isn't worse than your description... my wheel would wobble non-stop... took me 2 hours to go 5 miles to get home.. had to keep pulling over, jacking up my car, and using my hands to align the wheel again

Well, I had to get TWO new studs. My other stud messed up too. I think everything is straight now.
