To understand a click from a wheel after it was removed, compare it under normal, safe conditions: cold versus warm, idle versus steady speed, and light versus higher load. Record whether it happens once per rotation, during braking, or only over bumps. Change one condition at a time so the result stays useful.
Do not create a risky test just to reproduce it. Have the wheel installation and nearby brake hardware checked before further driving.
Quick educational note
For information, not a diagnosis or repair instruction. Vehicle-specific checks are still required. Consult the manufacturer's guidance and a qualified technician.
