Eaton HO52 rear drums/Brake Performance

Has anyone purchased Brake Performance's #66024 rear brake drums for their coiled springed HO52?

They look to be the correct ones for my 67 truck - but I wanted to ask for some feedback before I pull the trigger and order them.

Thank you

Got a link to the part you are looking at?
My experience has been to be wary of new brake drums, since they pretty much are all made overseas. So the QC can be a bit off.
If I were to buy brand new drums, I would first take them to a brake specialist to spin them. Just to make sure they are in balance, have heard too many horror stories of new non GM drums being out of balance.
