The plan is to put it on coil overs and get functional, yet tight fitment. Any help would be great.

1) Stock S13 bolt pattern is 4x114.3, 5 lug conversion hubs are 5x114.3 so that 5x100 bolt pattern WILL NOT fit your car.
2) The tire sizes and offsets you are listing are not conducive to "fitment". a +40 offset upfront will require spacers. i run a 17x9.5 +38 in the rear just fine on a 245 with rolled fenders (no pull). a 265 WILL require camber to fit as it will be squared up on the wheel (meaning no stretch)
3) functional fitment is a bit difficult to pull off. i would suggest running 17x8.5 +35 in front and 17x9.5 +38 in the rear. if you want hotboi, 17x9.5 +12 to +15 all around with some rubber band stretched tires (like 215 or 225)
4) if you want S13 kouki aero, i make everything but the front bumper.
