    i think 6.5" if you take out the spacer/make your own, and 6" if you plan on using the spacer. i have 6" in my vt.

    I would recommend alpine they make some quality gear.
    I am running the 2 way 6.5" type R's (not the splits version) in my VS and they are excellent.
    Installed them into 2 other mates cars as they were also surprised on how well they handle the low end and overall sound quality makes the type S sound hollow and pathetic.

    seeing as you drive a car with stock front plits, why not upgrade the whole front speaker package while you are at it? the type R front splits arent to much more and you will get much nicer and cleaner sounding hi's from your speakers, as well as hearing an improvement in your mid and lows?

    I have 6" pioneer champion series in front doors disconnected the rear door speakers and put 6x9's on the parcel shelf pioneer champion series ....... what can i say "makes you feel like a champion!" XD XD

    Only problem now is the bass the 6x9's produce shakes the parcel shelf like crazy

    well i have been doing ALOT of research into car audio because i am in the process of a complete upgrade. came across this amazing website: Sound Master Car Audio - Best prices on Car Audio, Alarms and Accessories they are australian and based in syd so postage is cheap, im talking no more that $11. you will find all kinds of audio gear on there and the prices kill JB HI FI and autobarns lowest deals buy at least $100 every time. check them out, im sure you will find some good 6" component speakers for your car.
