"Wheel STEAL" Rip-Off Kings Somehow Still in Business
Wheel Deal, Happy Wheels Inc
720 Columbia Turnpike
East Greenbush, NY 12061-2216
Phone: (518) 477-1124
Closed in April 2009 Under the name Wheel Deal, Inc. Opened again later that year with a modified name.
My Experience, briefly:
As the rest of the reviews I have read highlight, NO PAPERWORK, Change Prices AFTER paperwork is signed, LIES About Money Paid for Deposits and Payments, NO RECEIPTS, CASH payments only, CAN'T speak to the "owner" only the Grim reaper that is Rodney/Roger Goldstein, NEVER actually repair the vehicles when they are brought in for repairs under their "90 day bumper to bumper parts & labor warranty"....

Via Friend's First Hand Account: "I actually bought my nissan Altima from this place. I never received a title to my car I had to wait two years after I bought my car to get a title. I had to go through the better business borrow and file papers for lemon law. I never had payments on my car I paid for my car in cash and still claimed I owed them payments and thats why I never got a title. But had a receipt paying paid in full. I should have known better I grew up in EG, people forwarnd me not to buy from them, but sometimes youre young and dumb. The place has had like five different names it used to be called frontline motors. They were closed down as well."

Below is a link to the form that you send to the Vehicle Safety division of the DMV that regulates auto dealers, etc. Wheel Deal was shut down by these people in April of 2009 but reopened a short time later under a slightly modified name and on the same lot, even with Todd Goldstein still listed as the Owner. The laws are clearly made to protect scum like this, and not the people.
