take the nut off of the hub and it'll come off you don't need to remove the caliper......put a 2X4 against the front or back of the rim/tire and hammer on it!

I must be confused with your situation and model. Can't you remove the cotter pin and axle hub nut and have the wheel and hub come off the axle as a unit?

its a 250x and the hub is a bit smaller? than 300ex and it has a 300ex rim. i will just go and work on forcing it out aha. but the brake seems to hit the cover or something and the hub will not completely move. ill try something

I do believe the rotor is a part of the hub unit and is not accessible with the wheel on and won't be able to come Off without taking the caliper off.
