If you would list the engine size it would be easier to determine the drum size, but the guys at the parts counter should have asked you that too. The 2.0L single camshaft engine only shows a 9" diameter brake drum. The 2.0L double camshaft engine shows a 9" and 10" as possibilities. Some of the smaller engines list an 8" diameter drum. If you don't know which engine you have or if multiple sizes are listed for your engine, you'll have to remove a drum and measure the inside diameter. You can also take it to the parts store and they will match the right shoes. to it.
