Method NV wheels powder coating issue?

Just got my wheels in last night and opened up to find that 3 of the four wheels have mostly unpainted lug nut holes, not the entire hole but the little bit at the bottom that goes around the actual lug nut. Seems weird that you'd buy a black wheel with black lug nuts just to have to deal with a silver ring halfway breaking up the black around some of the lug nuts. It's also annoying because it isn't every wheel or even every hole. Just wanted to see if anyone has had this issue or if I possibly got some B stock wheels or something (they were purchased from amazon, new).

See the pic of a few lug nuts sitting in their respective seats. PS, happy Good Friday everyone, He is amazing!

Reason for the post is because I'm suppose to have tires mounted today and I don't want to do that if they turn out to be flawed.

If you haven't already, call Method and ask them if it's normal. Then you'll have your answer from the highest authority.

It's just weird because three of the four were pretty much painted up to the conical surface. But this one isn't at all. If they all matched I wouldn't care. Also the inside of that one particular wheel where the center cap goes the paint is very light, so if I ever wanted to go without the center caps it would be pretty noticeable. I ended up asking for a replacement from amazon so no big deal. Also, I decided to go ahead and buy my suspension lift so I'm just wait to put it all on at the same time.
