Why do it though?
The Impala would have the bigger lug pattern, so your wheels would no longer fit & you'd hafta get new wheels.
And your fronts are rears would be different lug patterns.
I just can't see ANY point in even trying.

Not to mention that old brakes like those are pretty dang heavy, I can't see the point either. You want to lose weight, not put it on. Especially with unsprung weight
