Yes the wheels could be the wrong ones etc - but here is another possible suggestion.
The drive shaft CV joints usually wear in one particular place and then knock a bit. Often when you jack up the car to change wheels the suspension alters the position of the sliding drive joint face to a place without wear and the car goes quiet until it finds that worn area again.
In your case it seems it was the other way around and that after putting the "sale" wheels on it went quiet (which I would expect) but then after putting the original wheels back on you have found that worn patch again.
