Need to know if this System sounds OK

What I am doing is buying some 6.5" mid-basses for the rear deck for my car off of eBay (Click Here) and I have some 6.5 3-ways (OZ Audio) for the front door. I also got some tweeters where I am going to place in the front door panel and another set on the rear deck (I am trying to get creative). The HU I got is a JVC Arsenal KD-SX8350. I will be getting their MP3 CD changer in like 3 more months. I am adding a 4 channel amp to power everything. The tweets have a built in crossover so I don't need to buy one. My entire system is 4 ohms. Please post any more recommendations. I already have the OZ Audio speakers, Tweeters, and HU. I am just wanting to know if the Mid's look good. How should I wire this? Meaning what guage wires should I run to where?

1. Those mids are not good, don't buy them
2. If your going to put coaxials in the front (Oz is a good brand BTW) You should scrap the idea of Tweeters in the front
3. Please don't buy mids for the rear deck and nothing else. That just sounds like crap, especiially for back seat passengers

If you want to use tweeters in the front also put the misbass upfront as well, and put the coaxials in back. 14-16 gauge speaker wire should be fine,

Tony your site was VERY helpful in making my installation easier. I am still not making my pods though, too lazy. James92SE is for a small fee. BigBlank69 (sounds like a sex position) thanks for the guage info because I heard some people were using 20-22 guage wires. How did you guys wire the rear deck? Did you do it on the inside carpet?
