both front tires wearing 'roundy' ...........worn on the edges, both inner and outer, assuming things are not all worn out, and alignment is close to pretty right ..... and proper tire pressure is maintained, - - I attribute that wear to hard cornering.

it's very normal for the front tires to wear 'roundy' and more, relative to the rear wear rate, and the rears wear 'straight across' more. Rotating tires front-to-rear is normal service.
