Is it okay to put three lug nuts in a car that needs five?
<|assistant|>
Yes, it is okay to put three lug nuts in a car that needs five. Placing three lug nuts on a wheel does not necessarily indicate a safety hazard as long as they are of a satisfactory quality. However, in some cases, three lug nuts may not provide sufficient holding power, in which case more should be added. Ultimately, it is best to follow the manufacturer's recommendations for maximum safety.
