Hi....
If the rubber one does not work give them a bang with a metal club hammer but only
on the edge of the disc.
They should just come off.
Make sure that you clean all the small rust deposits off the hub behind the disc as this can
lead to disc wobble and uneven wear.
When replacing the disc smear a little copper grease between the back of the new disc and the hub joining surface but only a smear just to keep the surfaces from rusting together again.
Hope this helps.
