what are some good speakers?

I am pretty sure i am going to get 2 12" mtx 8500 and i was wondering what some good speakers would be to match it and what kind of speaker power i would need to be able to keep up volume wise. thanks

6.5" component set would do fine for the fron and anywhere from 70watts rms to 100 will do personnaly i didnt see a difference when i powered mine from 40 watts to 110watts lol ohh and the rear speakers would fit 6x9"

the front fits 4x6" with an adapter you should be allright with 6.5"

the alpine type r 6x9 fits back with no modification but the 6.5 in the front on crutchfield says it doesnt fit but i have read about other sunfires with them in the door so i was wondering if i get them what kind of modification would i have to do?
