Drum Brakes Suck!!!!

Wow, I got my A55 handed to me this weekend by one of the rear drums. Finally just had to rip it off by hand. Turned out the shoe had separated inside the drum and was stuck holding the drum on. The only reason I even messed with it, was the wheel cylinder was leaking. Finally got it off and replaced everything inside. Anyone replaced the drums with new ones? I'm thinking they look kind of puny for rear brakes.
