    Take the caliper off. get a hammer and hit the rotor where the studs comes out not the stud but the rotor its just stuck and don't hit it to hard and get some wd40 spray it around the studs than hit it again but not to hard. spray all 5 studs with wd40 and hit it with a hammer

    Just keep tapping them around the edges and it'll come loose.

    From memory there are a couple of tapped holes in the rotors, you can use these to screw in some bolts which will push the rotor from the hub... if not use a mallet to tap them off...

    with the bolt as advised took very little time at all compared to the hours of rubber malletting it
