FYI, those wheels have too much positive offset for proper fitment on a 93-2002 F-body.
Your going to need spacers with that offset, just like 18" x 11" +50mm offset.
Furthermore, a +50mm offset would be perfect with 18" x 10.5" wheels.

In the rear you need to do all the same inner wheel well modification as you would with 18 x 11, +50mm offset wheels.
Futhermore, a +44mm to +50mm offset in the rear would offer the best fitment.

IMO, it doesn't matter what they label them as, a +58mm offset is wrong for proper fitment on a 93-02 F-body. I'd do some more searching until you find some wheels you like that have a offset in the proper range (+44mm to +50mm).

I use 1/4" hub centric spacers with my 17x11 50mm ZR1 replicas. You might be able to get by using the ones you found if you have at least a 1/2" spacer and longer ARP wheel studs, and then as previously stated all the mods typically used to make the 17x11's work (minor grinding on the spindle, sometimes rubs on inner wheel liner at full lock, sometimes rubs on sway bar arm at full lock, etc.)

I run a 9.5 +44 on the front. You can run a 10" or 10.5" wide wheel with a 40mm offset. There's plenty of space to the outside of the wheel. Not so much inside. Anything over 50 is going to rub the spindle. So you need spacers or the proper offset.

I run a 11 +44 in the rear. It's flush with the outer fender and just clears the inner fender.
