What causes the....for lack of a better term -- 'rust circles' (I noticed the same thing on a pic of Bronsin's Yaris re his very recent accident) ? Harsh winters? Only places with harsh winters and certain road treatment? I'm not concerned (I know you wouldn't sell anyone anything you deemed unsafe), I'm just curious. As an ex-girlfriend used to say....an inquiring mind wants to know . (others besides CTScott also welcome to answer )

That rim actually came off a California car. The circles on that one are where the paint got sandblasted off the rim in between the areas covered by the hubcap.
