Default 19" summer/winter all season tires?

Recently purchased our 2010 RX. This vehicle is great but with awd, I am wondering if there will be a 19" replacement tire available with a snow rating.
On my last vehicle which was a 2007 explorer sport trac, I installed a set of good year forterra triple tread all season tires, which have a snow rating and had great traction in all weather.Good year does not make a tire in a 19" size. Now that we have the Lexus, I would like to purchase a set of similar tires that have a snow rating. I think I will have at least another 25 or 30k miles left on the original michelin tires.
Any suggestions?

I looked into those tires too and really wanted them, but found out the same as you, they are not available for the 19" wheels. So if I wanted them I would have to buy a set of the Lexus 18" wheels and use those, but if I was going to buy another set of wheels, I might as well buy a dedicated snow tire instead and just switch them out with the change of season.
