What kind of car do you have? If you just want the rotor off, you should look for a little threaded hole on the rotor. Put a bolt in there and it will pop the rotor loose. Get a Factory Service Manual if you want to get the hub off.

ditto....some more info about your car will be helpful....there also might be two phillips head screws pull those then if the bolt trick does not work then u have to go the old fashioned way....hit the **** out of it with a hammer......BECAREFUL no to hit the studs or the face of the rotor.....jus jar it loose so u can take it off.
