Best bet is let your camber do the trick as far as rubbing goes.

currently I'm running -3.2 camber in the rear with no finger gap.
my tires: 245/50/17

It's always a good idea & a time saver if you let it rub for couple days.. then inspect where the tires are rubbing. Then, slice off the sections of the body where its rubbing.

What I did was I just rolled my rear fender (even before getting the wheels) since I didn't want my tires to rub on metal. After that I just ride for a couple days rubbing plastic like crazy. Then, I jack the car up, cut off the pieces of the rear bumper where its rubbing = no rubbing, and no more jacking car up.

just give it a test drive. You might rub going up curbs sideways.

Wait a second,

Can someone clarify what modifications I have to do in order to fit 17x9 +45 all around(including tire sizes)? Please keep in mind that I plan on running something around a 1" drop all around. And will running these sizes mess up the suspension or handling of the S? Sorry for the noob questions.
