Would I Make it?

I just sold my aftermarket wheels and have turned my apartment upside down but can not find all the old lug nuts. I have to be to school by 4 to take a test and everyone is at work.

I am missing 2 lugnuts, so I put all 4 up front then 3 and 3 on the back. Would i be able to make it to the autozone if I cut through all the neighborhoods and keep it at like 20mph?

Oh okay. Well the reason I was so worried is one tire on the back needs replaced. I hit a pothole and broke the cords loose on the side of the tire so I don't want it to blow out and rip the freaking wheel off the studs... lol

you can make it. just put the 3 lugs in a triagle shape. then tighten then down in the cross patten starting with one of the lugs next to each other. a rough picture would look like this --> = -

the equals signs and the dash represent the lugnuts.
