when i brake hard or gradually from high speeds, my 1999 Pontiac Grand Am shakes. i can feel in from the front driver side and the steering wheel shakes pretty violently. is this a brake problem or a wheel balancing issue?
Warped brake rotors.
Most likely,
But, I've had them with bent wheels.
i think a balance issue would vibrate weather braking or not .. symptoms point to warped brake rotors.. a shop may be able to machine them if not to thin, or you could put new ones on.

Just bought new ones at Autozone myself, $34 each.
