Mine were also difficult to remove. I shot some WD-40 (or similar) thru the openings by the lug nuts and tapped in various spots before a good hard hit broke them loose. I didn't mind hitting hard as I was replacing the rotors.

OK obvious question E brake off ???
Some rotors have small threaded holes between the lugs that you can thread in small bolts to force the rotors loose
A large three armed gear puller can be tightened down hard and then start hitting it hard
