For our customers most go with the kevlar disc from bimmerworld which is made by clutchmasters. You need about 500 miles of break in but I would have no problem using this on the street.

Kevlar is nice, but the one downside is it's a little too easy to destroy the clutch from slipping it. If you slip it too much on purpose or accident they toast and glaze over, where as say an organic or iron clutch will just wear a lot.

Organic, sintered iron, ceramic....

You need to give more details on your goals. Do you want stock like engagement? Do you mind if it bites more, do you want long life, extra holding power ETC.

ie, are you going to throw on a blower or something that'll significantly increase hp, as you would then need a clutch that can facilitate the bump in hp.

If you want help put it in understandable terms. Streetable and rips are both vague and open for interpretation.
