Crappy captive rotors!!!!!!!!!!
Who invent them!? Do they have better performance? I suppose not. They just have much bigger haemorrhoids to change them!!!
Why the hell somebody put them on Tib???
I found some captive to non captive transformations and installation of XG calipers.
What should I do to transform my captive rotors to non captive with XG calipers? Should I install hub from XG? Will it fit my stock axle?

Here's a DIY on it. I'll be doing this real soon. I just have the hubs and spindles, not the calipers. Since it's a tib to tib swap I don't need them.
Come to think about it, it might be a good idea to get the non-captive stuff from a larger car. But you'll need the calipers/rotors/hubs/spindles plus a new mounting bracket for you calipers.
Not even to mention brake lines. They should work but.......???
