Thats pretty bad!
Warranty job no doubt!

Unless you have been cleaning them with an acid based substance?

I just bought a 2003 WRX and it too has corrosion on each wheel. The car has a few months left on warrenty and I am getting a dealer to look at them before this runs out. Will keep you posted if I can get these changed under warrenty.

regards,
