I have 15's on my 66. The car has been lowered 1 1/2 in front and 1" in the rear and we didn't have any problems at all. As long as your offsets are right, you should be fine.

I have 15" on my 68 and it lowered and have not problems. I have seen 66 with the same setup. You should not have a problem.
