M54B22 rebuild — M54 rings or M52TU oil-control rings?

I'm going to rebuild my M54B22 and I'm trying to decide which piston ring setup to use.

From what I've read, you can use the M54 compression rings together with the M52TU oil-control rings, which supposedly have a better design and can help with the M54's oil consumption.

Has anyone here actually rebuilt an M54 using the M52TU oil-control rings? Would you recommend this setup over just using the updated M54 rings?

I'd especially like to hear from anyone with long-term experience with either setup. What would you choose for a rebuild?
