well right now i really like kenwood excelon, they sound really good the highs are nice and even, but not to high like the alpine s speakers are nice but the highs are to high for me, the infinitys are nice they have a button on them so you can turn the highs down or leave em but i dont like the way they sound when the highs are turned down then when you leave em alone they are to high for me, and idk much about sony other than i heard they cant handle power from a amp, and as for walmart well my hespanic friends use them and i dont like the way they sound but its good for walmart. So basically i would go with kenwood excelon for a pare of 5-1/4'' they are $80 at stereo king.

I love my Infinity stuff, Jeep has Soundstream 5 1/4s and 1.5 inch tweeters in the front, not bad at all for the price, And some older Pioneer 3 way 6x9s (not the cheap ones) in the rear hatch for now. And 2 Infinity Reference 12s in a ported box

you will have to trim the opening a little the 6.5 will not drop right with only drilling some new holes. so theoretically no either and technical no either
I have a 99 cherokee and 6.5's dropped right in mine no problem. I just had to drill 2 new holes to put all four screws in.
check out www.onlinecarstereo.com! i ordered four lanzar 3 way 5.25 they sound great and only set me back 48 bucks. of course if you've got the jack get boston acoustics pro's, but being married puts fun toys like that out of my price range. hope that helped ya...
