The same issue that's been mentioned is probably tripping you up -- keeping in mind that the XY offsets are in relation to the lineset's angle.  That means you want the 5.33 in the Y direction relative to the 90-degree direction.  Try this [untested]:

 

*SHOWERTILE_4x16, Shower Tile 4x16 1:3 stagger
0, 0,0, 0,4
90, 5.33333,0, 4,-5.33333, 4,-12

 

[I increased the number of decimal places, because with fewer, you may find the pattern gets slightly off as you get farther from the origin.  But depending on how you use it, that may not be an issue, and you may be able to use fewer without noticing any irregularity.]
