the bigger you go (lower number that is), (like said above 16-18 Ga.), the better the power is to get to the speaker and it will sound better

I run Alpine R series all around, 2 4 inchers in dash with base blockers, 2 5.5's in the doors, and 2 5x7's in the back. These are all amped by 100 watts and I had to get a sub just to make it sound balanced with all those highs. But it sounds better then anything you will get from any factory car. I don't listen to the radio any more because you can actually hear how low the quality is. I can even tell a difference between my XM and CD's, which are a higher bit rate.

Look into the focal seakers on cartoys. I had the plesure of hearing these, and the imaging is friggin great! Like said before, I don't belive the doors even have holes for them, so get a set of kick panels that have bump outs for 5 1/2 - 6 1/2's or so.
