Default Replacing rear brake shoes.

I'm not sure when the last owner replaced the rear shoes. I'm planning on replacing the shoes out with some new ones. Only question I have is whether or not I should replace the springs while I'm there. If it's better to do so, does Honda sell a spring rebuild kit or is every spring individually sold? Thanks.

ive never replaced the springs when changing brake shoes on any car ive owned and never had any problems afterwards, but have always cleaned them up and put copperslip on them. as far as i know they only need replacing when broken and honda do replacement springs as sets.

there is no need to replace the springs unless they are missing or broken
