Default 21x.3.5 wheel swap brake issue question.

Okay so I have a 2003 road King classic non abs. All I did was a simple swap. I took the calipers off hung them properly did my swap remounted the stock rotors and put it all back together using proper torque specs. Now the front break lever is feeling really wonky spongy and when it does work it squeals. I didn't open the bleeder valve or the master cylinder. What can be the issue? I love the new wheel I love how it handles I want to feel secure with the brake.
