15” wheels on 1987 formula Firebird


Hello, I am new to this forum. I purchased a set of four stock wheels from a 1991 Firebird. These new wheels are 15”. My 87 formula has the stock 16” wheels. I am wondering if they will fit? The lug pattern is the same but I am wondering if I will have any issues clearing brake components? Has anyone tried to to put the same 15” wheels on an 87 formula before? I attached a pic of the new wheels I am trying to put on my 87 formula. Thanks!
