Will a non-standard size wheels?
You can buy wheels for my 2011 Mustang V6 with the following parameters:
Front 19" / 9J / +22
Rear 19" / 10J / +25
I'm interested in, not whether they are to cling or stick out beyond the fenders?
Did not find examples of photos with similar parameters.

Your rear wheels will stick out about 20 mm more than this rear wheel (look at the wheel, not the tire just yet), and your front wheels would stick out about the same amount as this front wheel (because I doubt that you are running nearly as much negative camber as I am, which pulls the tops of the front tires inward).
Depending on what tire sizes you might choose, your rear tires will stick out at least 22 mm more than what this picture shows, and your front tires would stick out at least as far (same reason involving camber, plus your wheel and tire combinations will almost certainly have more sidewall bulge than what I'm running here on my track tire setup).
I am also assuming that your 2011 sheetmetal is not significantly different from my 2008.

How much wider depends at least a little on what width wheels your class rules allow you to run. I haven't autocrossed much in the last three years or so - picked up a track day habit instead.
I do know that when Sam Strano was running a Mustang in F-Stock a few years back he was running tires at least as wide as 285/30-18's on the stock rims, probably Hoosier A-somethings. I don't think I ever ran in a "Stock" class in any car I autocrossed, ever, so I really don't have any experience with squeezing wide tires down on narrow rims like that.
That picture above is 285/35-18's on 18 x 11 Forgestar wheels, on both ends. Clearance to the strut up front is very close, as in the only reasonable way to measure it is with feeler gauge blades.

Many thanks for your reply.
I can buy these wheels:
Front 20 "/ 9J / +32 off
Rear 20 "/ 10J / +39 off
Tire in the following sizes :
255/35/20
285/30/20
How will they look?
Strong will stick out beyond the wings?
