Default can you reuse piston rings? and if so...

how do you tell if they are shot or not? I bought some b16 pr3 pistons awhile ago and they would be perfect for the ls/vtec 11.3:1 comp but I dont really want to spend all the extra money if I dont have to.

rings are 25$ per piston from the dealer. its worth the extra cash to have peace of mind..

im sure you can reuse them, but especially with a Ls/V motor, i would not want to take any short cuts.
