1. Post in ICE for more and better replies.

2. Try an underseat sub.

I measured my speakers and went to eBay. I think mine were 3.5" in the front doors.

Bought a set of pioneer ts somethings and then a pair of infinity 6x9's for the rear parcel shelf.

Didn't bother changing any wires before testing them and it sounded great. The front speakers were about £18 and the 6x9s about £28. Sounds great now and cost next to nothing.

IIRC both fronts and rears are 13cm. OE.

You can get 16.5cm to fit in thew front with spacers which are invisible when the doorcard is back, and 6x9's in the rear as you say...but in a wagon? Not sure abt that......

Save weight & not drawer power????
Are you trying to shave .00001 sec of your 0-60 time?
It will make no difference to your performance,well not that you could measure without the Large Hadron Colliider.
