Default Name that sound...wierd noise that stops when braking?

Ok, I did my '00 SI brakes a few weeks ago...took the car to autox event and car is working good.

Just started noticing a sound today while driving. Almost like something loose *clunk clunk clunk* and seems to be related to the speed of the tires rotating....almost like the sound when you have a flat tire. If I brake (or pull ebrake slightly), the sound goes away.

Since this happened while at work, I tried looking under, bouncing up and down on the back bumper (I'm sure it's the rear left making the sound), and also checked the lug nuts. I can't find anything loose visually.

Any ideas what the possibilities are?

Good thing to check. That was one thing I was thinking about. I bought these and never thought about checking the caliper bolts before swapping it. :S stupid me...
