Help. Changing front rotors

Im in the process of changing my front rotors. I have taken the caliper off and now the rotor wont budge. Could it be that its just rusted on there? Or is there something Im missing? And its a 2.2 LT...Thanks in Advance.

if your replacing the rotors, just take a hammer and give the rotor a few good hits. It'll come off

You need to pull off those little lock clips at the base of the studs. Not gonna go very far unless you cut those off.
