100% normal.
That's residual oxidation (aka rust) from the steel wheel hub. Nothing to worry about.
If you really care, you can brush the rust off the hub, and coat it with copper grease or antiseize on the effected areas. But not really necessary.
Metal electrolysis can occur, but the residue is usually white-ish. Yours is classic rust.
The plastic inserts are only used on cheap non hub-centric wheels, to make generic wheels fit to narrower hubs of various cars. That's what happens when you have generic wheels being sold for various vehicles.
It's a terrible hack, as the plastic gets chewed up over time, and the wheel picks up additional vibrations that can't be balanced out, and will drive you mad.
For future reference - make sure that the aftermarket wheels you consider buying are hub-centric.
Otherwise plastic or even metal spacers will be an additional PITA during wheels swaps at best, and wont properly balance and vibrate at worst.
YMMV,
