I work at classic nissan in orlando. Its so that johnnys tire rotation shop down the street from us doesnt try to put your rear tires on the front. Just get a 14mm wrench I believe, it might be a 12, and take it off and then mount your new rims on.

No, nothing will happen if you take that bolt out and yes if the rotor is froze to the hub by way of rust because of aging you can use a longer bolt of the same thread pitch to force it off if rapping on the inner part of the rotor with a hammer doesnt persuade it to come loose.
