I run 275/35 and 285/35 tires on my 18 x 9.5" and 10.5" staggered wheels and have liked the performance on the track. I'm not a track expert and there are other wheel/tire sizes that I would consider trying. I don't see the point of running square tire sizes on staggered wheels. You can't rotate them. Plus you would be running a low profile 30 series tire on an 18" wheel which also partially defeats the purpose of running 18's.
