Just ordered some Hawk 5.0 brake pads for the front and rear. The oem ones suck, they leave a lot of brake dust and squeal like hell. It's a little embarrassing when people look over and they see a nice C63 that can't afford to replace brakes lol.
My Hellcat had the same problem and the hawk pads fixed it. Should have them installed by next weekend. Meantime I'll start checking to see how to disable the rear calipers.
i wanted the HAWK ceramic pads but pretty sure they only had them for the front and nothing for the rear?
Will HB830Z.667 work for the rear? Im returning my rear EBC red stuff as they are completely different than OEM. I guess they send me the silver calliper pads.

The correct part number for EBC rears is DP32117C. Which ones did you get?
DP32117C are the ones on the picture no? That's what I've ordered and they are incorrect.
i ordered the same ones but they havent come in yet. Its odd that you say its incorrect because I had two ppl confirm they would fit and even a member here posted that part number that he used on his 2018 C63S
Yes they will fit the non- S c63 with silver calipers but not the red ones, its completely different.
uh that sucks. Finding brake pads for the rear on this car is a pain in the ***. Its almost like no one makes them. I might just give up and buy OEM for the rear

PaulC, notice my pics of the rear caliper/pad from two views. We have the same type pad which is different from earlier years. Maybe somewhere in 2019 they made the change? Anyway, I can't find the correct rear pads either. I did notice a very similar setup on the AMG GT class. Maybe the rear calipers are the same as them? For the rear anyway...
I've always had great results with EBC brake pads. Manufactured in either England or Italy. summitracing.com EBC Redstuff 3000 ceramic brake padspads. For my 2018 C63S – Front DP31939C, $140. Rear DP32117C, $190.
hey DP32117C doesnt seem to be the right part for the rears. Can you clarify if you have the red calipers or not? Thanks
Notice the color of my caliper is RED? Notice up close the rear pads have those "old fashioned" side tabs that fit into the slot? Polished metal spring holding it in place?

I don't belive any aftermarket supplier has picked up on this yet. So unfortunately, it's probably OEM for the time being. I did reach out to Porterfield and was told to take a pic and they'd try to match it up. Nah... I'll wait until it's 'official' by a name I trust.

I run Porterfields front and rear on my 2016 C63S.

how are they in terms of noise and dust?
recently ive seen members here post that they are no good until fully warmed and that they dont dust less either. Hows your experience been with them?
at this point i dont even have any other choice because no one is making the rear pads for this car. EBC just made a new bad but wont be out till mid march!

I like them... initially when new a lot better than standard dust wise.
Towards the end of their life dust does appear but that’s life I suppose.
They last longer than standard.
I went through two sets of standard rears in under two years and the Porterfields are still going after almost another 2 years (probable due to replace soon).

EBC releasing FL C63S rear pads in March. And you know this how?..... Please confirm.
DP32117C are the ones on the picture no? That's what I've ordered and they are incorrect.
Thats a bummer, I have the same pairs sitting here. Looking into it further I guess they have yellowstuff pads that will fit (DP41939R / DP42350R). Good to hear they are releasing redstuff in March

ok so the brake pads you have on top that's how mine are and I have the silver calipers no s c63. The part number I put for hawk fit mine so they should fit yours since they're identical. Now for the front, they send me the brake pads for the s version, 390mm, so I'm returning those since they are completely different than mine.
