    I have a question about my C Four with 16" wheels. When the steering wheel goes all the way to a stop there is a thunk that feels like metal on metal. It is like there is no rubber bump stops. Can someone let me know if this is normal. I am used to cars that have a nice cushioned bump at the steering limits.

    Nope. Metal stop. I can feel it, too. I haven't looked at it, but it's pretty obvious to me.
