Brake job on '99 ML320 - Strage noise from rear

I just finished a complete brake job on my wifes ML320. I noticed a strange sound coming from the rear passenger side when applying the brake. It's a thumping sound when the brakes are applied hard (link something is on the rotor and makes a noise every revolution). Does this have to do with pad/rotor break in or is it something else? I've looked over the set up and everything seems to be fine.

Thanks in advance for the help.

the brakes

all you need to do and grab a peace of very ruff sand paper and go up and down with it from the center and strate up. not around. and the sound will go away

Never heard of a "strage" noise. Can you describe it??
