I was looking at my car today from behind. I noticed that both wheels from the back are actually not straight up as in top to bottom, but instead they sit a little off going outwards. I mean the top of the wheel will be a bit further inside the body of the car and the edge that touches the road will be a little further away from the body.
Is this normal? 530i 2006.

Your inside tire tread will start to wear first, so keep an eye on it.
