Default Vossens cvt question

I'm looking at the 19" cvt's and was wondering what tire for the rear. I would like to get 265-30,isn't that stretching the tire too much for a 10" rim?(of which I am no fan of). I .would like to get an all season tire since I live in the Midwest and the car is awd. Also,will RSR down springs work with this setup without rubbing. Who has had any experience with Toyota Proxes 4's? Thanks in advance.

for J10 265/30 will be little stretch but not as much to use that word. I think exactly the best size for J10

I think you are right,but which tire gives the least amount of stretch? I personally like the Conti dws,but the sidewall is softer than some others giving more stretch. That why I asked about the Toyos

Federals run wider therefore giving less stretch. Michelin PS2s also run wider along with BF goodrich. Where in MI do you live btw?

St. Joseph,right on the lake in the sw corner. I was hoping someone has had experience with the Toyo's. I just want a tire that;s not stretched.
