Brake warning light- this is normal, just keep adding a little extra fluid until it goes away.
Be sure the wheels are actually bent, worn tires can cause the same feeling. For offset, the few places I checked online show everything from 35 to 42, so I think you can customize things a bit depending on how wide your tires are.
Any dealer who works on the headlight is supposed to replace the entire lens and reflector as a unit. This is to prevent the problem you currently have. However, you can purchase the lens by itself from certain online places. I've replaced both of mine already. Simply remove the entire headlight assembly, pry the lens clips off (carefully, they fly off) and pry the lens from the reflector. I recommend buying a new lens gasket before starting because you never know if it will come out in one piece or 10. As for cleaning, glass cleaner worked for me, it fully evaporates and leaves no residue. DO NOT rub the reflector much or very hard, and use a very soft cloth. I lost a little paint when I did it... For sure, install new bulbs in both headlights, including the little ones on the edge. Otherwise, one might look different than the other: dimmer or different color. Check the gaskets on the bulb sockets.
