I recall trying to put on 185x15 for rear tires, which is where you'll see the biggest clearance issue. It worked but I had to jack up the rear of the car (to drop the axle down) in order to get the tires to mount over the drum brakes. YMMV, but I think I have seen several SS's driven around with this size tire.

If you'd like to stick with the original size 155x15, over on the 750/101 group they had several discussions about Vredesteins and BF Goodrich (various times in 2007, and Jan 2008). One person commented that he liked the BFG's better, and they're available from Costco.
