Default weird rattle on the driver's side

94 honda civic LX 4 door. I have a weird rattle comin from my front driver side. It only rattles while i coast, never when i brake or accelerate. Also when it is rattle the steering wheel shakes as well. I was thinking it could just be the brake pads need replacing. what do you guys tghink?

also this just started today and got progressively worse in a matter of minutes.

i drove my lady to work this morning and it isnt a rattle anymore. more like a very horrible knocking sound. under breaking it is nearly gone. Heaven forbid i get up to 50 mph, it feels like the whole front of the car wants to come apart.

In the to and from drive, it got progressively worse again. need help guys.

i took off my lugs to check and see if the brake pads need changeing or if the rotor was warped and all of my lugs save one were loosened to the point of hand turning. maybe 5 threads kept my wheel from falling off while driving. wtf?
