absolutely not, the gold calipers are full ceramic brakes, only replace those with ceramic pads. as far as i am aware no one aftermarket makes pads for the gold calipers so you will have to go oem. also dont quote me but i think the pads are a different size too

Actually only the Front rotors are carbon ceramic and the rears are steel rotors.
The OEM part number for your front brake pads is: 0004205800
The OEM part number for your rear brake pads is: 0004203700. This is the same as cars with the red brake calipers since yours has steel rotors like all the rest of them do.
Here is a link to APC's online catalog: APC Automotive - Online Catalog 2018 C63S Coupe
Make sure you look for the front pads for the "Ceramic Disc". The rear pads use the ones for the "Iron Disc; Red Calipers".
They manufacture Centric, StopTech, C-Tek and Posi-Quiet pads. For the street, I use the Posi-Quiet brand on my cars. Have never used them for a Carbon Ceramic brake system though.
