Even 15 inch steel wheels are a very tight fit onto Buick drums. Like Bob said, the offset would affect how far the wheel goes over the fins, so if the salt flats are relatively deep on the inside, they might present a problem, being that aluminum wheels should be thicker than steel.
American Racing I am sure has been down this road, too bad you are having problems reaching them. I would keep trying to be sure before you lay out your money and find you have a problem.
You can see in these pictures how tight even steel wheels fit against the fins. Picture one and three are with 15 inch wheels, and number two is with 16 inch wheels.
