Cracks around CSL lug holes

I noticed these cracks in the area around the lugs on one of my oem CSL front wheels.

I looks like it is just the paint but because of its location I'm worried it may be something else. The back side of the wheel and mounting surface shows no similar marks or cracks.

The wheels where refinished by BMW last year.

Anyone seen this before?

Looks like just the paint to me but it's difficult to say from pictures. Until you're sure though definitely don't drive on them. So, you might as well chip some paint off to be sure. Then, if it is just the paint, hopefully BMW will warranty the paint job.

Surprised but pleased.
BMW dealer called and said it was just paint. They are fully sandblasting and reprinting the rim on the house.
