Keep in mind that the rear deck speakers are 8ohm and are connected in parallel with the rear door which are also 8ohm to produce a 4ohm load to the receiver. If you replace the deck speakers with 4ohm speakers, you should really disconnect the door speakers or you may run into problems with the head unit being overdriven by a smaller load (works out to 2.67ohms)
