Heh... "SMW" are my initials! So I was confused for a couple seconds.
I have experienced the wear-through issue. The rear tire has a shorter lifespan, in my experience, but never less than 2 winter seasons. I have successfully extended the life of my SMWs (heh) by using Mr. Tuffy tire liners.
This SMW is past its useful life span.
