Two problems related to wheel have been reported for the 1999 GMC Sierra. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Wheel problem

Failure Date: 07/27/2013

Pirelli scorpion tires, size p255/70r16, bought 7/11/2007 from tirerack. Com. At 21,000 miles, tires are showing severe weather cracking, very similar to what I experienced with my Ford explorer during the firestone tire recall in 2000. Tire racks warranty specifically states tires with weather cracking which were purchased more than 4 years prior to presentation for adjustment are not covered by the warranty. Although there is ample tread life left, these tires are simply no longer safe.

2 Wheel problem

Failure Date: 09/21/1999

Plastic hub nuts continually become loose and have to be retightned. While driving about 55 miles per hour 0ne actually came off.
