Default Wheel fitment across lexus years question

Hey CL!
I'm think of buying a set of rims that used to be on an 06 is250 that fit with cut fenders. I have an 08 is250. Just wondering if the wheel/fender specs stayed the same so that they'll fit on my 08 as well.
the specs are
20x9 +21 f
20x10 +29 R

Thanks for any help

They're going to be really aggressive on your car if they even fit. i think you can get the rears to fit but not the front. The offsets are too aggressive and you'll have problems turning.

Even the fsport wheels are +40 offset. This appears twice as aggressive.

its actually about 31mm more aggressive, and even so i tucked most of the tire with 8.5+15 and had no problems turning what so ever with being lower than most people would ever be in this car.
