Well if you already have S-off what do you mean by that you want to root your phone? Isn't is already rooted? Also Clockworkmod recovery is used to have root access so that we can flash Custom ROMs, if you don't want any custom ROM why at the first instant you want to root your device?

If you have S-OFF then you probably should have root. Then you can overite system files!
