While driving and foot off brakes there is clicking noise that only stops when I hit the brakes. I don't think these have any clips to hold pads in place. Thickness looks good but I have not yet took them apart to see why they doing that. Can you see in the pictures if they come with sort of clips so they are not loose when foot is off the brakes?

If the pads rattle in the caliper mount the clips are missing. Yes, these pads have retainer clips for the brake pads which will make the rattle you are describing.

There is zero suspension issues. No wobbling. When front wheel removed rotor turns straight. I tried to turn the wheel thinking maybe there is one specific lug it needs to go on no matter what it still sits outside the ring. I cleaned both the wherl hub and rotor hub same thing
