Wrong bolts, there's only two holding the caliper to the wheel carrier.

expan the caliper so the brake pads dont get in your way when installing. remove the two 18mm bolts only. drop the caliper, use a T30 torx to remove the rotor retaining bolt. put a lug bolt a few threads into the hub. grab the largest hammer you can find. strike the rotor on the braking area face. once it loosens pull off and reassemble in reverse order. NOTE: you might want to use some loctite on those 18mm bolts.
