Rust !!
I think it's normal for rust in that area. You can see similar rust on the very top of your rotors (where it isn't shiny)
Edit* Brakes will often times rust slightly overnight even after being wet. Comes right off after after the first use of the brakes.

Absolutely normal. You will start to cry little girl tears as soon as you remove a rim to take a peek at the rotor. To get rid of it, well, really can't but you could remove the rim and paint the rotor (please don't paint the shiny part that the pads contact) with caliper paint. Once done make sure you wipe down the shiny part of the rotor by spraying brake cleaner onto a rag and wiping any areas. You don't even want finger prints on that area.

i understand the rotors building rust spots due to moisture at times but i never seen the ring of rust like that on any of my other cars.

i wasn't talking about the under carriage of the vehicle...look at where i live ...every vehicle gets killed by snow & salt.
i was jus refering to rust buildup on brand new rotors around the rim i never had that issue on any of my vehicles.
