I think what you are seeing is probably some paint imperfections on the silver layer, but since its clear coated on top, it should be good?
I took it to a guy that those powder coating and he told me the same thing after seen them. He said theres two layers and maybe he silver one didnt catch up right on those difficult corners and with the heat of the wheel and enviroment the first black layer started to show up. Thanks for your input.
