the rear will fit 20" wheels, you just need to use a tire size calculator and size the tires properly to keep the closest overall diameter to stock. This way you wont have rubbing issues(also need to check offset) and your speedometer will be accurate.

here is a link to a calculator: http://www.1010tires.com/TireSizeCalculator.asp

A 275/35 sits nicely on a 9" wide 20" rim. I also have the same tire on my rear 10.5" wide rims but think they look too "stretched" and so for that width will be looking to change up to a 285 or 295 tire next time. Car is lowered and no rubbing at all. Just buy wheels for the 2005 Mustang and you'll be fine.
