Will I have enough time to get through customs, get a cab downtown, hopefully find a place to get fitted for a suit or two, and spend a little time in downtown Bangkok, then hop a cab back to the airport to catch my late afternoon flight?
You'll have time to do what you desire if it's planned out ahead of time. If you're going to arrive and then try to find a reputable tailorshop you might as well not bother.

Just out of curiosity, are you flying to MLE? There are precious few routes exBKK plied with C and the only domestic one is to USM (and there's no 15:30 flight that i can see). If this is an international route be sure to give enough time for checkin and immigration (which isn't too bad these days).
