Are you referring to XTC foam baffles or similar?

I only consider them if the door they are going into is particularly leaky or if the driver will have pressure on it such as rear deck speakers sharing the trunk with subwoofers.

If u used teh XTC baffles, you would be good to stuff them with dacron (pillow stuffing for audio)
it will make the speakrs think they have more air space to work with.

Polyfill won't make a massive difference.
