no one probably does it because the lexus paint is very weak and will crack. shaving is a better option imo. i had mine rolled on my GS and it was a nightmare.

I have your exact setup for my volks, except for a 255/35 in the rear. You WILL need to do fender mods. I rolled all four corners, still rubbed a tad in the rear, so I shaved a little in the rear. Only on fast corners do I rub on the bumper tab on the front passenger side.

After shaving the rears a little more this morning, I finally have NO rubbing in the rear.

Sorry for not making it clear in the above photo, but that's me turning into my driveway, also how I check for rubbing. My passenger rear in this pic was a few mm off the ground. Here is a pic of my car leveled

this is a close up of my ride height according to finger gaps. My ride height hasn't changed between wheels, but these were 19x9.5+45.

at the s-tech ride height, definitely roll your fenders.

shaving your fenders also works, but note that once your fenders are shaved, you can't roll them. on the other hand, rolling your fender still leaves the option to shave your fenders in the future if you need maximum clearance.

rolling your fenders also pulls the fenders out a little bit. yes, the paint on the 2is is not very strong and will crack easily, BUT if it is done carefully and by a competent, experienced fender roller, you should not have that issue. case in point, my fenders were rolled by a highly-experienced fender roller and i have not had issues w/ my fenders post-rolling.

aside from the fender are the fender/bumper tabs. given your ride height, you may not need to shave/modify them. any lower, however, and it'll be a must - especially up front, since the front wheels turn in/out in addition to suspension travel vs. the rear wheels that just have suspension travel to deal with.

I spoke to soon. With 9.5 +22 with 3 passengers it rubs both front and rear on a decent bump.
