This worries me. Wear as in scratches is one thing but this could be a more serious issue. If the person used the wrong lugs this could have causes the wheels to have actual damage. Be careful especially if you cannot physically inspect these.

walk away from these. You are pissing your money away. That wheel will not center properly and cause vibrations. Heck it may even work the nuts loose.
