Please please please don't comment if It's negative. Just after ideas not hate. I have some 9 and 10j 15inch steels, I want to large ish wall with a slight stretch. Nothing extreme. Anyone running anything like this ? Any pics? Google just throws up extreme stretch with low profiles

I know it's a bit of a different scale, but 7x10 classic Mini wheels will (likely) technically be running with stretched tyres, as IIRC the maximum recommended width of the 165x10 tyres is 6" and these are the widest road tyres you can get in 10" diameter - henceforth, something like this with 7" wide wheels is actually 'stretched'.
No idea if that's helpful, but we got a cool picture of a random Mini anyway.

You may find availability will limit your choices somewhat. I run 10" x 15" on the back of my Ascona and the widest tyre you can get is 225 without paying silly money (£300 each). I have 225 45 15 fitted and they are a fair stretch so I dare say you couldn't go any narrower than that for the 10's anyway.

That mini is the sort of style. So 225/60 or even 225/70 could work (not researched on hols and building ideas)
