All I need to know is: Do I need to press out the bearings to replace the tone wheel?

A Tone wheel is part of the ABS system. The ABS controller needs to know how fast each wheel is rotating. On each hub assembly is a toothed wheel, called a tone wheel, and there's a magnetic pickup positioned immediately next to it.

I don't think so ... looks like Allen key type bolts are all that holds it on.
Unless they are cracked you don't need to replace them. You can clean them with fine emery paper if the ABS comes on too soon.

I just replied to your PM...

Yeah, the hub needs to come out.

You can remove the tone ring without pulling the hub, but you need to break it into pieces
