It will be stuck on pretty tight if its stock. There are two I believe threads in the rotor, find 2 bolts or 1 that fit into the thread and drive them in with a socket, this will make the rotor pop off the hub.
Did my friends max rotors 3weeks ago, ss brake lines, pads yadda.

has a good write up for front rotor work


I just hit the back of the rotor with a small 2x4 (so i dont actually hit the rotor)and a hammer then turned the rotor and hit it again and it poped right off

Rubber mallet and of course, remove the caliper. It should fall right off.
