If you did it right, from 2007-2014 you would buy a set of 6 1/2" component speakers for the front and a pair if 6 1/2" coax speakers for the back

New in 2015, you buy two sets of 6 1/2" component speakers.

The kicker replacement speakers are coax so they have no place in a 2015 (if you are doing it right). There are many component speakers available in a budget price range. Many people just buy the Polk DB6501 components without ever hearing them and are happy with the results.

Part of the fun of car audio is auditioning speakers and choosing the ones that sound best to you. Go to a stereo store and listen, then decide what you want to put in your Jeep.
That clears it up. Thanks for the explination!
