I did an install like the one posted above a while ago but used on 10" instead. If I was to do it again I would have used a ID8. it was a ton of work to get a 10" inside the spare tire rim and the goal for the particular set up was SQ.
8's just look bad ***!!! and its great when you destroy some kids "big" stero with just a few 8's, haha.

Two 8s vs 1 10. It's a tough call to make. I'm in a bit of the same quandry with my new system.

Who makes the ID8? Image dynamics?
Im thinking Im going to put the 8's in the location where the rear speakers would be if my car had them.
What do most of you guys use for polyfill?

i have a 2000 escort i am going to put 8's where the 6x8(5x7) speakers were with a couple tweeters the kicker 8s are what i am shooting for.
they are shallow have good frequency response and decent power handling.
and will fit in the spot with out a ton of modifying.
