I went with the e39 540i SPEC Stage 1, with the optional sprung hub disc. I'm using the 240mm e39 540i UUC flywheel. A bit pricey for a normal organic clutch setup, but it has no adjustment to mess with/slip, and the pressure plate is rebuildable (although I'm not sure how cost effective that will be). The flywheel is also nice, since you can just bolt a new friction disc on during a clutch replacement.
So far it's great, no slipping and smooth engagement, but I only have about 3k miles on it. My m52 clutch behind my 5 speed lasted about 12k miles before slipping.
I'm suprised your stock clutch is slipping, is it the e34 265mm or e39 240mm setup? How many miles?
