Question Question re forward cant on A320 nosewheel

Having flown various pax aircraft, and now on A320, i have been puzzled why the nosegear is canted forward on the A320. It seems hard on the tyres on tight turns, and doesnt seem to do anything to improve tyre grip.
Anyone know the design reasons for this?
Thanks in advance.
