Default Luk clutches???

I was wondering if anybody has used luk clutches? My car has 115,000 miles and the clutch is beginning to wear down. I recently was laid off from my job and I need to find an inexpensive replacement. I don't have the money to spend $460 on the spec clutch and then another 350 to 400 on a new flywheel. I found this clutch assembly kit but I do not know anything about the manufacturer.

Does anybody have any reviews about this part ?

LuK clutches are fine as OE replacements. put one in when my SRT-4 needed it.

I'm impressed you got 115K out of your original OEM clutch. Mine went out at 65K. :/

I replaced my factory clutch at 185k, there was still material on probably could've gotten more out of it.

I have nearly 130K on my factory clutch in my '06 GT.

LUK clutches? I had one in an '85 GT and it was crap. Slipped almost from day it was installed. I'll never have another one.
