The specs from the new wheels;
8j x 17” ET25 will mount it with 215/45/17
the car is 40/30mm lowered on new stock shocks.
Will these fit on my B3 coupe?

Standard B3 coupe wheels are 15 x 7J with ET37 running 205/60 tyres so your new wheel will be more or less the same on the inner side and around 25mm further out and tyres will be about 1.5mm smaller in overall diameter, so it will probably foul the outer wheel arch due to the extra 1 inch (25mm) poke, you could test before by fitting a 25mm spacer to your existing standard wheel to see how close to the arch it protrudes.
Overall diameter of the wheel/tyre will be just slightly less so thats not an issue its the extra 25mm poke outwards. My S2 is off road at the moment and its fitted temporary with a set of ur quattro 15 inch wheels with an offset of ET20 on standard suspension and that looks like it would foul the arch on lowered suspension as its bloody close.
I currently have wheels with these specs: 8j x 17" et35 with same size tyres.

I've fitted 7Jx16'' ET27 steelies on mine with no clearance issues. Compared to mine the inside of the wheels you want to fit will sit about 1cm closer to the suspension. I don't know whether that will create problems but by looking at the suspension (when steering on full lock) I reckon you shouldn't have any issues.
