Yep 18x10 22mm offset on the rears on a stock TC axle with 5lug conversion.
18x9 24mm offset on the front with 94 stang spindles.
The rear fit perfect with the 22mm offset,about 1/16" clearance between the quad shocks and 1/16 on the outer fender lips.
To get better clearance on the outer lip the 1/4s should be rolled a little but i never have 3 people in the back anyways.
Otherwise they don't rub at all.
As for the rims your looking at,nice choice but i think the offset is wrong 15mm on the front seems not enough as factory offset on birds/cougs is 22mm and stang is 24mm.
I guess though if they fit a stock stang they should work.
I wanted those wheels before i did the 5lug swap as they said they would never make them in 4lug but i went with FR500s and am happy as a pig in s##t with them.
As for pics,i have some somewhere but i would have to find them.

Alrighty, I told the machine shop last week to go ahead and order me the bottom end kit with forged pistons (figure I'm gonna go ahead and do it 100% while I'm in here).  Everything should be done next week, ready for me to start assembly.  All I gotta do now is grab a cam and a fuel pump.  It's getting close, guys!
