The vibration around passenger feet I would say it is a worn radius arm bushing.The tire wear is do to front end wear and may possibly have a bubble in the tire. I would rotate the tire'a and see if the problem disapear's to the rear. I may also be the U joint's in the driveshaft.

The ball joint is a pain in the ass too[:@]If you plan on replacing them buy the upper and lower.As for the radius arm bushing's you will have to grind the factory rivet's down and punch them threw and use hardend steel bolt's and lock washer's when replacing.Real pain[:@]
