"Slicks" would, but "bald" tyres probably wouldn't. All tyres have a life after which they stop giving their best. It's the same reason why F1 teams change (or used to change) their tyres after a period of time even though technically they had more rubber on the road as the grooves got worn off. After 40,000km's, drifters tyres were certainly past their prime.
