Re: Is there a differance in brake shoes?

I first bought the riveted kind which were less when I just did my brake job. If you looked at the top of the rivets they would have been hitting the drum long before the lining was worn out. They went almost to the surface of the lining. I returned them and bought the more expensive, higher quality NAPA shoes and they had no rivets. I figured these would be better because I would be able to use the majority of the lining before swapping them out. Am I missing something?
