Goodyear mtr with kevlar
I just order them at a goodyear store, and read (on this forum) guys don't like them. Is there anyone who likes them, should i keep the order or get something else. I hope there is a way I can change my order, I did get them for 265.99 a piece. 
I went with them because of tire size 305/70-17(34) is an inbetween 33-35in tire.

They look like good tires. To be honest, it all comes down to personal preference. Look at anything and most often there are positive and negative reviews. Movies, Applications, Jeep Hardware. Everyone has their opinions so don't let someone elses thoughts influence you unless they have credibility to back it up <-Safety Issues
Keep in mind that you matched the tires based on looks, price, and YOUR needs, not someone elses. Finding a tire that is really aggressive when you only off-road occassionaly may not be what you need.
Tire Rack for instance had good reviews on this tire. Good luck

Again, according to tirerack customer reviews, they perform really well. The ride a bit rough, but overall they are quiet and work well

I think they're great! My BFG AT's i thought were good until the day I got stuck in a little mud ( on my own land) since the MTR's they have blazed a trail so to speak.
They have been outstanding in the snow we've had recently, never got stuck once.
As for noise, I honestly think they are quieter than the BFG's..really. I swear that was one of the first things I noticed when i put them on.
As for the wet weather, I cant say I have seen any negative effects as opposed to the BFG's.
I do howvere think they are going to wear a little more quickly , I beleive the rubber is a softer compound.
As said it is all a matter of prefference....I cant wait tio get it on the trails to try out.

I think just about every comment I have read here has been very positive, although I think some of the off road traction comments have been exaggerated a bit. 
The only that I have noticed is that the tread life recently came under fire. It may not be the tire's strongest feature but I doubt it is any worse than some MTs like the KM2s I currently run.
If you like the tread pattern and they fit your needs, I don't think you should have any second thoughts.

I'd bet $50 most of the haters have never driven with them. The psi needs to be much lower than KM2's, but when you find the right pressure they are a better ride on road and off. I like them better in the snow too. Just keep the air down.
I pulled the classic "new to jeep" mistake. I had 33" Toyo's, liked them and they really looked great but HEAVY and made a lot of noise after the first rotation.
When I lifted I went with the 35" MTR / Kevlars in 35 X 12.5 X 16. Same weight as the Toyo's, not as good looking but still aggressive. Ride about the same, and no one believes this, my mileage went UP! Has to be tread design or something. Quieter now but have not been rotated as yet. Performance on the street in this snow is as good as any tire I have driven (new to jeep'in).
