Default clicking sound from rear wheel

after installing the 20's its been making a clicking sound, only happens when i come to quick stops or hard braking, it almost sounds like its coming from the brakes or parking brake, took it to a local shop and the tech couldnt fix it, sad: any ideas?:

Hmmm, any update on this? This only started happening after just the wheels?

Some things to consider:

1) Rear brake drum holding pin is bent allowing the piin to rub on the wheel studs. The fix is to just bend the pin back to shape
2) CV shaft. The placement of heavier wheels could be magnifying an existing problem. Greased?
3) Brake disc hardware issue. I would check the hardware to ensure everythig is tight. Most likely the problem expecially if pads are worn.
4) Something in the tires resulting in the click click such as a nail,tack,etc..

Just some thought

is the car lowered? it could be the springs just moving a bit. also is your lowered with 20's and brake hard it could be rubbing on the top lining of the fender in the rear. feel around and see if it is.

Im sure its not a rubbing issue or a nail in the tire, only happens when i brake hard or long, or when i do allot of stops and goes, Im thinking its from the parking brake, im not sure how it works to be exact sounds like an internal sound, for sure its from the rear right wheel
