Did you arc the new shoes? You want some rubbing when adjusting the brakes.
 
i will put the lug nuts on and try to determine the metal contact. I will post results for fellow members thanks zeroroadkill
 
this is fun i put the lug nuts on to true up the drum and i have no rubbing yippee
 
If they’re only rubbing slightly this may be normal drag with new brake shoes. Please first adjust the shoes to get a very slight drag. Drive the car and As the shoes break in that rubbing sound will likely go away.
