whats wrong with these tires *pictures* i just got these new snow tires on and i noticed the front driver side sidewall looked squished lower to the ground. both tires are at the same tire pressure but the first one looks flatter on the ground for some reason, could it be a defect or something? if u look at the area that is contacting the ground that also seems wider
the second one is a different side for comparison (driver rear)

i just had an alignment and they had the toe 0, camber 0, and the caster is 5.
having the camber at 0 would do that? also i noticed the pass side. doesnt seem to have it as much

It's set that way on the right front to compensate for road crown. If you don't like the way the wheel sits you could ask the alignment shop to set it straight up, but it may pull to the right on most roads.
