Marks from removing wheel weights?

I had new tires installed by the dealer and these are the marks left behind. The dealer is pleading the 5th any ideas?

Not from the wheel weights, but could be from the tire changing machine. Almost looks like the wheel spun while on the machine...

Always tell them the wheel are not damaged and have them note it. Some shops will own up to others not. Accidents do happen but letting them know up front sometimes gets a more experienced person on the job. Those are some weird marks almost looks like vandalism.
