Whatever has happened it shouldn't have, I would take them back and ask for an explanation.

I wouldnt have thought any of the products you've used to wash/wax them (poorboys, menzerna) would do that to the finish....

as above, take them back and see what the wheel refurbish ppl have to say?

As I said on the phone, the products you are using are all wheel safe and non-acidic, so there is no way your products could be to blame. It actually looks a lot salt etching, although if your wheels were well protected through the winter then there is little chance this could be the case either. I would take them back and argue strongly that the finish is faulty. After all, it's not like you have abused them or used an aggressive cleaning approach.
