Default Bought 1.5" drop springs, what shocks/wheel size is recommended?

I'm looking for your opinions. Found a great deal on some Jackson Racing Sport Lowering Springs, 1.5" drop, so I went ahead and bought them. I would like to use OEM springs, but from what I've read, that's probably not a wise idea.

1. For a 1.5" drop, would you recommend the Koni Reds? Anything else I should consider?

2. Currently running on 16's, but the wheels are crap so I need to get some new ones anyway. What do you think would look best with this drop? I'd like to go back to 15's or would that look gay? Pics or recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks!

KBY AGX are pretty decent and you can get adustable ones , Koni Yellows's are pretty nice too

Overall save up for a coilover setup

Thanks for the reply! Now I'm a noob when it comes to suspension, so when you suggest adjustables, are they necessary for a 1.5 drop? Or more of a "nice-to-have"?

for 1.5" drop you don't need adjustables... hell, in my personal opinion you dno't even need upgraded shocks till they blow out.
