They do? I suppose this is due to the wheel being "hinged" at an offset
with respect to the axle, so that the steering wheels follow the track
of the vehicle. Much like the swiveling shopping cart wheels.
The normal steering system in Technic LEGO does not account for this,
as there is no offset. But one could easily make a custom steering
setup that would allow for this. Sounds cool! But now I'm getting
seriously off-topic! *eek*! ;-)
