Cause of uneven tire wear?

My driver side tire has an odd wear pattern. The tire is a very nobby style tread. The center nobs stick out more the the sides. It's as if the sides have worn out but the center hasn't. What should i be looking for?

Yeah if the edges are wore and the center is fine its low air pressure,If its the center wore but the edges are fine then its too much air pressure.
