Must be ok AFIAK. There was a guy in a MK-I that showed up at the autox
with only 3 lugs on all 4 wheels. Said he ran like this for 9 months now.
(you would of thought he could of gotten a set by now but whatever.)
I think as long as you dont autox, your OK for a little while. You might
feel a slight wheel balance problem. Other than that, you should be safe.

Roc On!
