Nah, those are oxidation stripes from sitting so long. The stock and track wheels are getting the right tires on 'em tomorrow. The oxidation will be worn off on the 26th of April.

A blue tinge is often indicative of violent heat cycling. You sure it's not that?

If so, you might be getting to the point where you need to cool em down your last lap, or get tire warmers so you only actually cycle them once over the course of an entire track day.
