Looks like Tire Source was the place, but is now closed. This sucks because I need to get one shaved as well!

I've got a RWD 335 - open diff. Give me the tire you need shaved, I'll do a burn out and take it down to the amount you need. Free of charge

Seriously though, have you tried Discount or Big O?

I called quite a few places a couple years ago with no luck. The only place I found was Tire Source. Let me know if you find a shop because I need to have it done for one of mine.

I know you've said you've tried Tire Rack, but was curious if you asked a general customer service person. If not, hit up Gary Stanley. He is great to work with and may be able to find a solution for you. He's been real supportive of the BMW community.

You could get away with two from what I understand, but I was in the same boat as you and ended up replacing all four as well.

Try calling a racing shop like 3R Auto or SCR, they could probably lead you in the right direction.

Also, just realized that there is a tire rack in Colorado... Perhaps they can do it at their facility?
