Hi, I'm new here and have been reading the forum, but haven't found an answer. I need to replace the front rotors on my 2000 Accent. Have removed the calipers, but still can't get the rotors off. Do I need to remove the hubs or bearings to get the rotors off, and if so, how difficult is it to do? Any special tools needed? Thanks for any help!

FYI, I'll answer my own question. I was able to get the rotors off with a lot of tapping with a mallet and spraying with solvent, but it took a couple of hours, at least half of it letting the solvent work. They're not bolted to the hub, just a very tight fit.
