Width is key here. Also once you get into the +40 and more offset width as well as spoke design play a large role in fitment with regard to the brakes clearance in the fronts. There is a fair amount of latitude with the rears.
If you use a offset calculator then you can use a wheel that represents a maximum width and offset for a Mark or Tbird, whatever...For instance:
Max would be 9" wide w/+36mm offset and makes a good barometer for other wheel fitments. So....
Say you have a 8.5" wide wheel with a +42MM offset...Lets compare the two with regard to inner & outter clearance.
INNER CLEARANCE would be THE SAME
Outer clearance would retract (In the wheel-well) 12MM
