Do you guys know if we need a special tool to rotate & compress the rear pistons? Or if we can just use a c-clamp like the fronts?

If you just bleed the caliper, it should be pretty easy to push back. A regular clamp should do the trick.

Even with the bleeders closed, the rears usually compress fairly easily. Just squeeze 'em on in there

after struggling with my outboard piston being seized and the local shops wanting to see a big wear difference between the inboard and outboard before any warrenty company is called I took it to a brake masters here in surprise az and the guy at the front counter said it was one of those funky pistons that requires a special tool like my old ser spec v sentra, I replaced the rear pads at the end of 2012 and this is starting to **** me off. I have an appointment thusday morning unfortunately he wont be there to be shown its just a press piston not a screw piston I think. am I wrong? ill post back after the apt on Thursday.

I haven't changed the rears on the Ralliart, but before you have to turn the piston to compress them. Fronts you just c clamp compress them. Also, like everyone said, open the brake resevior
