Notice the dark mark on the outer part of the inner circle. Just a typical sign of a foot not wanting to be flat with the pedal.

Not enough Cleat Wedge
Not long ago we talked about pedal wear and how to see if more wedges are needed. We mostly focused on Look style pedals because for that system you look more toward the pedal for signs of wear. Here is a Speedplay cleat with Cleat Wedges and yet it was not enough. How can you tell? Look at the wear mark which is shown more on the out side (lateral part) of the cleat. If the fit is even between the shoe/cleat/pedal you will not see uneven wear like this.
This foot clearly does not want to be flat and needed just one more Cleat Wedge. Note ITS (In The Shoe) wedges do not always help this situation. This foot was a great example to compare ITS vs Cleat Wedges. No matter how much ITS went inside this shoe the foot did not meet the pedal flat until we went with Cleat Wedges. If you are unsure which wedge to use your odds are significantly better if you use Cleat Wedges only.

Connection of Excellence – for the feet!
Super is right! They aren’t the world-leading insole for nothing. Their cycling insole has features beyond most people’s understanding. Built into the design is more thought and energy than any insole on the market. This includes a heel support with a slight varus tilt- perhaps the most overlooked part of the foot in bike fitting today. Superfeet also had the insight to design their insoles to work perfectly with the world’s leading in-the-shoe wedge, BikeFit ITS. Super indeed!
What can we say the Best working with the Best!
Nice FIT!
