Those models will not interchange, there are lots of differences.

You say you have an '08 model, so I assume this means you are not in the U.S. In the U.S., the '06/'07 models will interchange wheels with a KLX300 and I think KDX200/220, but the '09+ models will not (entirely different speedometer drive and brake rotor diameters).

lanky use the search function here on KF. There are a few posts about swaping wheels here.
I just got a set of 95 KDX wheels that fit my 07 KLX.
Good luck, Dan
