Default how do i remove the rear rotors on a 2002 camaro ss?

unlike the front rotors which you just take the whole caliper off and wiggle the front rotor....the rears do not come off this easy. i need to replace some wheel studs and cant without removing these suckers. any help is appreciated. i know i have to take off the rear caliper, but then what? thanks.....

the back comes off the same as the front. do you have the ebrake on? if you do, which is my guess, then thats why they are not coming off.

Smack em with a hammer gently or beat the hell outta it with a rubber mallet after you turn the ebrake off. They stick from the brake shoe dust. Just like regular old drums
