Rusting alloys
How did this stupid design flaw ever happen, i mean rusting!? I take it these issues are no longer a problem in newer rx8s (yes yes i understand that obvioulsy not every car was affected, etc etc)

That's why I was asking. The wheels are alloys - and I doubt they're rusting.
Are the rotor hubs even "alloy"? I assumed if they were they wouldn't be rusty. ??

Mine are rusty, but it's not a design flaw. It's metal, which rusts.
Think of it as an opportunity to customize - paint the calipers and hubs whatever color you choose.
