Define Street Use ??
Assuming (sic) that the operator knows how to treat a clutch; For plain driver type driving, anything that falls off the parts counter will last as needed. Once you climb onto the aggressive ladder, lots of "actual use" factors need to be considered. Things like disc compounds/heat disapation/spring or flex-plate ratings. Are you using the tranny to slow the car in corners? Long featherings to get it going ? Most manufacturers have tons of on-line data to smarten & confuse relative to applications. Take time to read it all.
Personally, I'm still using the clutch that came with the old BRG in the first place. It's thinned a bunch and probably should be replaced with the current re-hab, but it works fine. Of course I'm one of those inert left foot guys who knows the shift points in a toploader.
