Always a good idea to get the same brand of speakers all the way around (subs can be an exception, usually) You want to "match" the sound out of all the speakers so the X-over points are the same, and (for example) the symbols sound the same all around the car. For example: titanium tweeters tend to sound crispy to me. If you have titaniums in front, and soft domes in rear (you will hear the difference in most cases)

you have 5 x 7's all the way around. You can fit a 5 x 7, 6 x 8, or even build a baffle for a 6.5.
