Default anyone seen the new Goodyear MT/R with Kevlar?

I guess the MT/R with Kevlar is Goodyear's new Maximum Traction off road enthusiast tire. I'm about a month away from being home and buying new tires and I saw the ad for these in 4WHEELER Mag. Just thought I'd see what you all think about this tire. So? Has anyone seen these on the road or read any reviews?

Here's the link from Tire rack:

I took a look at them 2 days ago. Personally, I like the previous MTRs better. The new ones look like a really aggressive street tire. The tread surface is flatter and more road friendly. 3/5mehs

Surely they are not just available as white letters?

After looking at the pic in the article, I can see why you'd say that.

Default Re: anyone seen the new Goodyear MT/R with Kevlar?

I was thinking of getting the MT/R Kevlars but am still undecided. I had a set of the MT/R's when they first came out on my Silverado. They wore extremely well and performed well on that application. There isn't much price difference so it makes it a tough decision. I'm gonna buy something in the next couple of weeks so I'll post some pics if I end up with the Kevlar's.

I went and checked these tires out in person today. They had the Kevlar, regular MT/R and the new DuraTrac all layed out in a row. The Kevlar's have nice deep lugs and the spacing looks as though they will clean out very nicely when in the mud. The Goodyear dealer matched the cheapest online price so I have a set of 315/75-16 on the way. I'll post some pics once they are installed (maybe Saturday).
