just tried to change the disc brakes on a peugeot 307 for my brother.
but the discs on the car looked like the main hub nut has to come off as well. but the replacement ones just sit over the hub flange,
does the hub nut have to come off, we tried tapping the discs after removing the 2 small torx bolts but still would not move.
cheers.
prob rusted on,wd40 and a much bigger hammer
If you think they are tight try a Mondeo
We had to thrash some off the nephew's Calibra the other day, he thought he'd forgotten to undo a bolt somewhere. Hit the centre of the bell
between the stud holes and don't be too shy with the hammer, you'll see it spring off when the rust breaks

I saw in Car Mechanic someone cut through the disc on a mondeo with a hacksaw so he could remove it. Apparently at that garage its standard procedure.
remove caliper remove both torks then beat disc off.they are tight fit around hubs
If you're really stuck, a big chisel and hammer should do the trick!
