I haven't had any issues with mine so far. They seem to be wearing normally, and they're pretty smooth on the road.
I'd have to say I'm happy with them. Whats your issue?

I don't think the SR-A is an A/T tire. It is an all season tire.

No. The Mohawk radial that came out in the early 70s is the biggest waste of rubber ever. Seen some BRAND NEW on the shelf that were separated. The SRA's are dang close though.

WetTrac my arse.
They SUCK on wet roads.

Quiet? Yes.
Wore evenly? Yes.
All-Terrain? Hardly. They did OK on sand, but would spin almost immediately on dry grass.

I would like to agree, but actually mine did well in some deep sand so I couldn't justify replacing them, yet. No doubt they are not geared for hard-core off-road action though. They did suck in some really deep snow last winter, but for a road tire no complaints.
