Dumb question about rear speakers

This just came into my head right now in the middle of class

I just realized that I am running my power to my sub on the same side that my speaker wire is on for my rears. My rears are not powered, they are running off the headunit.
I don't hear and odd noices or buzzing sounds from it, the only problem I have is that the rears don't get as high as the stock fronts.

My rears are Boston Accoustics RM6
My Fronts are Stock non bose
My sub uses 310 watts RMS

Thank you

Makes no difference.

They don't get loud because they require more power than your stock fronts.

Correct, your stocks are only 15-30watt speakers. Amp up those rear and you will be kickin.

Not all 6.5" will fit. I had a pair of boston acoustics coaxes that were 6.5 and they didn't fit in the front or the rear. Our openings are technically 6.75" although the cdt 6.5's I have now fit fine.

Whats the deepest speaker you can put in the front anyways?

And I'll check the diameter tomorrow.
