Default 2 cent on Brake drums

Ive searched and searched but didnt find anything that answered this question about drums.

I have one that is out of spec and the others are tapered with the widest points close to out of spec. Searching for replacements from Macs, Snyders, and mikes I have found 3 options.

New drums, don't remember which company but they said USA made, Used drums, and reman'd Drums.

I was kind of leaning towards the reman drums, mostly because they are original equipment technically so I wouldn't think there would be a fitment issue and the price is a little nicer than the brand new. That being said I am willing to spend the money as long as I only do it once!

What is everyones experience in this subject? Should I get new shoes as well, I found on the forum where someone found new shoes. Could I get away with relining my old shoes? if relining are the molded an upgrade from the woven?

Thanks again everybody, I know im wearing the forum out tonight I appreciate all the responses!
