I had additional conversations yesterday and I've heard a consistent message that the Michelins are much "fatter" than other tires, looking back at it now it may have also been the 295 instead of the 285, I think I had to skip the 285 and go to the 295 size because that was the only other tire other than the 275 that carried the higher load rating required for the staggered setup. I'm guessing the lower stance with the unplugged brackets caused the problem, stock may not have had that issue.
The recommendation I'm getting is the Pirelli P Zero 295/25/22 for the rear and 255/30/22 for the fronts. Going to reach out to unplugged see if they have seen anything to offer an opinion on 22's I know they only offer the 21s so they may not have much feedback.
