Ease of maintainance is the big thing. The 16V brakes
give you greater stopping power. So if you want more
powerful brakes, do it. The only advantage I've ever
seen for drum brakes is they are supposedly more
reliable after you go through mud and water. I was
going to put some 16V rears on my '85 before I sold it
to an Audi mechanic. Definately this is somthing worth
doing...
