This is the only tire I know of that meets your size requirement. Honestly, I've never seen one on a vehicle. It has the 128 Load Index,

I'd be concerned with the negative effect on braking of the narrower tire, especially under load. What is the perceived benefit of dropping from a 255 or 265 stock JK tire width to 235?
We ordered a Simpson III with the free annex last weekend at the 4WheelParts Jeep and Truck Fest. Free shipping to 4WheelParts by my house. $1341.00 and tax, not a bad deal.
I've run an ARB fridge in a different Teardrop trailer on multiple occasions for up to 5 days off of the battery in the desert, with the temps in the 90s. The onboard battery was more than sufficient and solar was not needed.
I talked to the Smittybilt Rep at Overland Expo, who told me that the XL Annex was cancelled. There will not be an annex. He did, however, explain that the ARB annexes would attach to the zipper.
In the desert the ground temperature that your sleeping bag and mat are on can be significantly warmer (20-30 degrees Fahrenheit) than the floor of a roof-top tent 4-8 feet off the ground, a significant difference in comfort. Good enough reason for you?
I cut my Jeep hood and installed the three DayStar vents. Although marketed to the Jeep JK crowd I think the templates could be adapted to other hoods.
