They will bind more than callipers as the 'autoadjusters' don't adjust properly and they are a pain in the ass to setup right. Callipers require no setting up at all and won't bind if they're clean.
Plus when the material falls off the shoe it'll lock the drum solid and you'll have to call the AA..... Common problem in the winter with drums (so the AA guy told me)!
Yes drums lock up so you can do handbrake turns....but that really is the only upside to them!
Thanks for the info, looks like I will be sticking with disc brakes on the rear then!
