Default Rear Brake knocking

Took off my rear brakes to paint the calipers (mistake number one).

I thought I put them back on correctly (mistake number duex).

I did notice on the driver's side that the inside pad had a spring broken but I didn't replace it (mistake number 3)

Now the car sounds and feels like there is a flat tire. Is this the result of the broken spring or is it something else.

Please advise (let's not make this mistake number 4...hehehe). If it is the brake pads, how much should I expect to pay and where should I get them...can't wait to get over net due to this Audi thing in Seattle this weekend

Thanks,
Ed

Default The Autozone Duralast pads ($22, lifetime) seem adequate for the rear.

Or, spend $30-40 for something else. The benefit of Autozone was that it was right down the street.
