I agree with Faint about just enough Speed to outspeed Garchomp, and i agree with the others about few Sp Atk EVs because the damage from Dragon Pulse is already enough (and Calm Mind will do the job for you), but i have one consideration about bulkness:

You guys dump the rest of EVs into HP, but since Latias wasn't meant to be taking physical hits from the powerful Ubers (well, maybe she can do this a tiny bit), so what about dumping those EVs into Special Defense?

With Soul Dew 1.5x boost she will be more bulkness against special attackers rather than she had dumped all of it into HP. She could then even switch into SpecsOgre Ice Beam easier.
