CV looking weird

Hey guys,
Is my CV boot looking like this indicative of some issue or is it normal?
Also, my angles are pretty good huh?

Looks like the boot just got bound up or maybe some road debris hit it. Try to just straighten it out if it’s not torn. Angles look fine.

I've found boots can sometimes develop a vacuum, though that's usually the inner CV boot because the inner joint can slide in and out (think of the boot as a plunger).

I'd try to massage it a little to try and pop it out, but I'd assume when you drive it the grease inside will heat up and expand the boot to normal (just my theory).

Just installed my coilovers and moving the hub around did it. Have since driven about 50 miles and on the highway.
