Default Component speakers

What type of component speakers are you all running in your trucks? I have an Eclipse head unit and a kicker l7 12" solobaric in mine now. It is now time to upgrade to some good mids and highs. I was just wondering what you all used. I am leaning towards some Focals or a nice set of Eclipse speakers. Also, what size are the speakers in the rear doors?

JL Audio makes some good stuff...I have the 6.5" XR components and I am extremely happy with them Are you gonna amp them or run them off a deck? I would amp stock speakers before running aftermarkets off a deck....the amp will make more difference than the speakers will IMO

I have factory speakers in my doors Im just putting 200 watts to em and they sound great. I have a buddy w/ MB Quartz seperates and with my Memphis tweeters on the dash mine sounds just as good.
