You will have to grind the calipers to make the prostars fit.

First off if they are on a mustang right now, they will NOT fit.

Even if they are the correct bolt pattern and offset for a 4th gen F-body, they will not fit without grinding the calipers, and the 28" tires will NOT fit without modification to the inner fender well and bumper cover...

There are plenty of threads on here about this.
