What's your budget? I went with CNS Racing Clutch and I couldn't be happier. It is one bad azz clutch and flywheel assembly.

From what I gather....flywheel is good for 2 clutches.....what number clutch is this for your car?

The stock clutch can get over 100k....all depends on how you treat your clutch.
Do you rev match downshifts?....etc

Scroll down to General E39 M5....thread 7 & 8
