our trucks came with 15's, so yes, it's do-able. But you may have the bigger of the two brakes....

well my truck has 16s on it and when i put the 15's on the back they clear, but they dont clear the front calipers. so im thinking, me and the good old angle grinder go out in the garage there and knock a little material right off of them and send it down the road.

if you have the bigger brakes, keep them. you may not be happy with the performance if you downgrade the brakes
