Metallic Clunking When braking...

\r\n \r\n if the rotor was not spinning true I would suggest either the rotor is not sitting flush on the hub (build up on the hub that was not cleaned off properly before installation of the new disc)
\nOtherwise it is possible you have bad wheel bearings.

\nDo you have any pic of the "grooving" I mean you say the "wheels" inside hub.. I guess I don\'t understand what part u are talking about.\r\n

I never put the screws back on when I did my brakes- they are more of a source of trouble IMO than anything. If anybody has experience to the contrary, feel free to let me know.

I've heard stories from people that didn't torque their lug nuts and suffered the consequences. IMO it is a simple thing to remedy and not a bad habit to check the torque on them every so often.
