or do I jut need to remove and replace the studs?
Unless there's something peculiar about your studs, you can leave them in place.

To remove the rotors:

- Remove the calipers the same way you would if you were changing pads
- Remove the caliper bracket (the two 18mm bolt heads)
- Remove the two retaining screws on the face of the rotor between the wheel studs

If you get all the stuff above off and the rotor won't come off, then it's stuck.
