Of course, after coming to this conclusion, I realise that A052s are not available in 275/35 18. What do they have against BMW?
Yeah that sucks! Its one of the most popular tire sizes. They also don't offer a 285/30 either.

I ended up going staggered after reading from other track junkies that Staggered is faster and you can put more power down from apex to track out as well. 265/35 and 295/35 on 18x10 Ec-7's 33 offset.
