2005 Honda Accord LX drum rear brakes, just over 150k miles. they've never been done. i bought the parts around 80k miles, but the damn brakes just never wore out....until now.

My question is, should I replace the wheel cylinders as a "preventative" measure? Nothing wrong with them, but since I'm doing it at 150k miles rather than the expected 80k miles, I'm wondering if I should. I have pretty limited experience with drum brakes, so not sure what is proper.

If yes, honda genuine, or any other brands recomended? I would hate to replace perfectly good Honda Parts with inferior Chinese junk.

Thanks!

 

My feeling is don't replace them if they're OK. My reasoning is that not too much effort is repeated if you have to replace the wheel cylinders later. That's for DIY - if you have to schedule & pay for a shop to do that, you might think differently.
