Okay Finally Decided... Need some input.
Alright, was going to buy a sub and amp a while ago but I didn't have the money that I thought I had.
So I already bought my kenwood 5160 and faceplate.
All I'm getting for now is speakers, and an amp.
This is going in my RSX Type S.
Anyways, I was recommended just to get two component speakers - http://www.edesignaudio.com/product_info.php?products_id=521
Would those be a good choice? They said just connect the front speakers, as there is no need for 4 in such a small interior.
Does that seem like a good idea? Or should I run 4?
Also Im needing a 4 Channel Amp as I was to run a Sub in a few months. I'm looking for an amp that will do about 600W's. So I can run 100W RMS to my speakers and then bride the other two channels for my Sub or whatever.
Any recommendations?

If you want to give 600W to your sub on a 4ch amp, you should get a separate Class D mono amp for it. Then a decent 100 or 150x2 RMS for the front so you have some headroom.
If you want a single amp soloution, you would need to find an amp that does 150x4@4ohms
that way you get 2x150 for the front and presumably 1x600 (bridged @4ohms) for the sub.
a quick google search found this
Cerwin Vega Stroker 4 channel amp
and
Mtx 4 channel
To get the most bang for the buck, your best bet is two separate amps. Used off ebay/forums.
Never heard the DLS they might be good though. Maybe look at some of CDT's stuff with the better crossovers (560i) and the DRT-25 or DRT 26 silk tweeters.
These dont have the Tweeters i mentioned but they should be very good CDT ES-610
