ok to use new and slightly used bearings?

I'm doing a re-rebuild because the first time I rebuilt my motor (4k miles ago) I had closed the motor on a side seal that had come out of the side seal groove on one side. Well this caused crazy blow by and also damaged the rotor witch might I add had brand new bearings. Anyways a budy of mine has the same year rotors with brand new bearings in them that I will be using however now the rotor bearings will be completely new and the stationary bearings will be 4k miles old. Would you guys reuse the stationary bearings with the new rotor bearings or would you get new stationary bearings?

As long as all the bearings look good, and the clearances are correct go ahead.
