Default Shocks for 1.5" lift

So I put new spring and a small coil spacer on my 96 5.2. I also have 30" tires. I need new shocks. I'm looking at the belstein. A guy at 4 wheel parts un Charlotte told me to go with the belstein 4600, which says os for stock height but it's small enough of a lift it would work better. Is this true or should I go with the 5100 series that says it's for a 1" to 2" lift. The guy at 4 wheel parts said they would bottom out on my jeep.

For what its wort I measured my shocks from eye to eye, best I could while on the jeep, and it was about 19.5" to 20" roughly while at rest.

4600 or 5100? Thanks!

The stock shocks should be able to handle a lift of that height.
