They need to be slightly larger than the outside diameter of the basket and approximately 1/2" thick so the basket will lay on and mount to the surface after the ring is mounted to the door.

The last pic in post 113 will give you a good idea. Although it is a 5th gen, the concept it exactly the same.

now with the baffle, there is still enough clearence for the speaker excursion? cause a half inch in there is a decent amount of room taken up.

also have any of you put rear speakers in your doors in your max's or I's 96-99, i have a jl e2150 that i could use to power my components and then i can use a 4 channel amp to power the rear set of speakers.

Yes.

Yes. I have a second set of components in the rear doors. I would recommend just a pair of coaxials.
