Folger Tech has 9mm wide GT2 belt with glass fibers embedded in it, but its about as good as everything else they sell. If you want higher quality (probably) look at Stock Drive Products Part Number: A 6R51MC090
The whole point of a belt is that it can flex. If you don't want flex maybe you need rack and pinion gearing instead of a belt.

Belt stretch is unlikely to be the limiting factor in your design, especially if it uses stepper motors. Remember that a stepper motor has no rigid mechanical coupling - its just a stick being turned by magnets. At the step (1.8 degree) level they are very springy.
You can get carbon fiber or steel reinforced belts which have very low stretch but I don't think they come in the 2mm GT2 profile.

A lot of things could cause that problem. Are you sure it's the belts?
