It might be that the wind at flying speeds would turn the wheels, which would then make the carplane less aerodynamic. Also, you'd want to make sure the wheels are pointing straight ahead when you come back in to land.
Interesting car / plane. In the video you see the steering wheel was tied up during the flight of the experimental vehicle. I guess the final one would have a locking mechanism.
