Best Anti-Freeze for Aluminum Radiators? 200

I don't expect that anyone on this forum is still running an aluminium radiator, but if you were, what kind of anti-freeze would you use?

The dealer antifreeze is a little pricy, but I have had three plastic/aluminum radiators (one Volvo, two BMWs) fail within two years of adding Prestone 5/50, so I am thinking of trying something different after I put a new radiator in wife's car today.

Failures are probably not anti-freeze related, but who knows?

Thanks!
