I would love to get a set of DSW, but it's not available in staggered 19

I've went through a set of Latitude and doesn't care for them much. Rears (285/45-R19) have a much narrower contact patch than others and have gone bald in less than 15k miles. It worn evenly, so it's not an alignment issue that caused their early demise. Overall, the sidewall of the latitude is overly soft and took away from the responsiveness of the car. Dry traction are just as bad. Didn't realize how bad they were until I replaced them with my current set of Pirelli. At this point, I would rather experiment on the Kumho & Hankook than to go back to those Latitude.
