If there is "slight play" in my rear wheel bearings, can they be tightened or will I have to purchase new ones?

from experience, if they arent making a noise, you might be able to get away with it. id just change them for what it is though

You can get rid of the play by just tightening them up, only need to change them when they get noisey IMO

No need to buy new ones unless they are running rough. Abit of play just means you need to tighten up the crown nut
