Default Clunking after Brake Pad replacement

Hello,

Just need some advice, I changed the front brake pads on 2019 lexus rc 300 F. Brakes work fine and I double checked the rim went on correctly. When I drive and the road is uneven it make a a metal clunking noise. When on smooth surface no noise. I didnt mess with the rotors or but when i checked them they looked fine. Not sure what that noise could be.

Raise the front end and wiggle the wheels while they are still mounted. That way you can tell if it's the wheel, strut, bearing, bushing, etc....Did you loosen the caliper bolts when you changed the pads?
