Wheelchairs are NOT suppose to click, but some do and there is a reason  
why.  The motor axle is designed and made by one company.  The wheels  and 
tires, by another company.  A "KEYWAY" is used to mate the wheel to the  axle.  
The keyway, is a piece of hard metal, that fits between the wheel  and 
axle.  If undersides, will rock or click.  If the wheel nut is not  properly 
tighten, will click, with each rotation.
 
The other operating noise is the magnetic brake which is designed to  
prevent a chair or scooter from going forward and backwards at the same  time.
 
I hope this helps.
Best Wishes

Hey Bobbie 
I thought about the same thing, but decided to stick to rear wheel drive.  
Yes, why do these chairs click so darn much? Good luck on whatever you  
choose.
