The pic is so small you can't tell, but it might not be melted. The braided hose might contact it during driving and the vibration made it act like sandpaper.

Stanless steal will not rust, but will discolor with heat. Does it apear they have been rubbing the tires? Looks like its just heat causing the color issue.

it could be dirt and grime in there you should take a piece of garden hose and zip tie it to the line that is getting rubbed on

I wish I would of knew that before I painted my rims but I would still ask for some stuff in the future if I ship them to you. How much for calipers would you charge to powdercoat them white. Or how much would you charge to powercoat some rims black.
