Don't think of this corrosion like you would rust. You get corrosion when
you put two different types of metal together - there's just a reaction.

Only in extreme circumstances would a steel wheel rust onto a steel hub.

It really is very normal and nothing to worry about - ask anyone in a tyre
place. But get some copper grease to stop it happening again.
