tires looking funny

my rear wheels are sort of flush with the rip when looking from above, but my front wheels kind of stick out about 1 inch. looks like they are flat, but they are not. if this common because of engine weight, i checked out other 3rd gen maximas at school (yea drove around the deck looking for them, my school as plenty) and they looked normal. are my tires shot.

Check to see if your tire pressure is low.. Sometimes sidewalls on some tires are soft enough for it to look like they are low on pressure when in fact they are at normal psi. I keep 33 all around, and check the pressure weekly and the other day my grandpa asked me to go "check my tires, they look like they need some air" because the sidewall of the tire was hanging out at the bottom like it was low on air.
