Tools for front and rear brake and rotor replacement

I believe it is just a normal 12mm or 14mm socket and some kind of compressor for the calipers, but if you crack open the bleeders you can compress the piston by hand.
 
front caliper 14mm ratchet socket or wrench, rotor 17mm or 19mm socket for rotors, c clamp for piston compression.
rear caliper 14mm wrench only, the bottom bolt is not accessible with a ratchet socket, rotors 17 or 19mm, c clamp for piston

edit and correction on rotor socket size

Front: 22mm socket
Rear: 19mm socket
 
Some rust penetrant to pre soak rotors to hub surface they tend to rust on pretty good. Best to spray some penetrant on the day before you tackle the disassembly.
 
I did my fronts with a standard socket set, a long breaker bar and some c-clamps.
I used the c-clamps to push the calipers back in with the old brake pad to clamp on.
