LOL. Not to bash but that's going to take a hell of a lot of body work to make fit on a *STOCK* body S2K.

I do give you some credit for at least mentioning proper tire sizes.

At least...you will need a flare up front, rolled rears, pulled rears and lot's of negative camber.

9+30 will fit with a slight flare upfront and a roll in the rear. With 245/40 tires.

^yeah but depending on right height you need a lot more than just a "slight flare"

I like how everyone thinks a 'slight flare' will make any wheel fit. My guess is that the OP isn't planning on riding on stock suspension so a 'mild flare' won't suffice.
