Is it a constant rubbing or like a skipping? I did my breaks had my drums turned and they rubbed and made a knocking sound around 5-0 mph upon deceleration. New drums fixed the problem. Hope you didnt get your shoes from auto zone. They get things wrong more often than not. compare the holes where the springs mount very carefully. I was given shoes identical to stock but the holes didn't exactly match. Took them back and got the right ones somewhere else.

Take a die grinder hold it on a aangle to the lip grind it down so its below the shiney part where shoes ride . This should allow drums to turn freely and it allows debri and water to run out so brake will not grind it into shoes/drum. Or buy new drums most likely there worn down to a point resurfaceing will take off to much to be safe.
