if the alignment is right. I bought a pair of wheels with used Michelin PS Rib's on them. No idea about their previous use. Used them myself for 8k. Noticed today they still look like they were new. Why? Because my mechanic noted the wear on my prior set and biased the rear alignment towards longer wear and gave up a little cornering. Plus I don't drive to kick out the rear on every corner.
