F-350 Dual sub, HELP!

Hey, well at the moment all I've got is 1 peerless XLS 10" sub the the back of my f350. Time to upgrade! haha. Well the only boxes i've found fit either dual 10's or dual 12's, but the 12's would have to be shallow mount cause there is no space at all behind the seats... Is there a downfall in performance when using shallow mount subs, or should i just go for dual 10's?

My price range is around $200/sub. What do you think would work best?
(I've already got the other equipment like amps and wiring...)

Thanks!

What you have for amp?
What's the internal volume of the box?
Is it a ported or seal box? If ported what is it tuned at?

What type of music you listen to?

This is the box ill be using: Ford F-250/F-350 Supercrew Cab 99-07 Dual BTS Subwoofer Box

Ill let you know on the amp later... Its at my brothers house

I listen to alt. rock, blues, classic rock, some electronic, grunge, indie rock, metal, punk, rap... a whole bunch of stuff. and obviously bass boosted ... I would prefer woofers that can hit low haha

I would suggest 2 of this, the dual 4 ohm optionDCON 10 Sound Solutions Audio 10" 300W DCON Series Subwoofer - SSA STORE

And later it would be nice to upgrade your amp with a nice mono block amp right now its on sale for a good price.(SALE PRICE: $169.15) AQ750 Amplifier
