New Rim/tire - thumping noise from rear - HELP !!!

I just changed over the tires and rims on a 1999 9-5 to a take off set of 2002 Linear wheel/tires with less than 1k miles. They went on like any other wheel/tire change I have done. The problem starts when the car is driven. The sound is like I have a flat. I checked the pressures and all was OK. The noise is still there. I started to remove the new rims/tires and replace the old ones-one at a time. Both fronts are fine, but the rears are where the problem is. But that is the question -What is the problem. I took both off and looked for rubbing and scraping - Nothing. I examined each tire/tim and everything looks like a tire with 1k - Brand new. The rims fit on the spindle like they should. I'm lost with what to do. The only thing I have not changed is the lugs. Is there any difference in them between model years and rim styles and although Not sure that this would cause this - I've looked at everything else and am reaching for a solution . Any help would be apprecaited
