Default Stock Speaker Sizes?

i have a 2000XJ, with 2 front door speakers, and 2 speakers in the rear roof bar. Are the ones in the rear 5.25 or the ones in the door? If so which size do i get for the front door? And anything about tweeters?
Thanks- Graham

Stock are 5 1/4. Teeter is in the Dash on the passenger side.

Front doors can house up to 6x9, just remove stock grille.

Soundbar can house up to 6x9. Just cut and screw in.

Any write ups on larger speakers in the front doors? Is there any problem with the glass being behind it?

Not that I know of. I had 6x9's in mine, than got 6.5s. Just lift up door panel, take out speaker, take off grill. Snap door panel back into place, attach wiring to speakers, place speaker in hole, screw into door panel. place new grill on. Done.

All of mine are blown too except the tweeters. I run polk/momo MMC650 in the back and infinity kappa 62.9Is(shallow mount) in the front.

I am not trying to burst your bubble or anything but a friend of mine just got the same speakers.
Fosgate Prime R152's

There is a good reason they don't give any good info on Amazon about them and no real reviews. It's because those speakers sounds absolutely horrible.

They are built very cheap and have a very low RMS rating of only 35 watts.
Their mica-injected polypropylene cones pop when any type of bass goes through them. They also have a very cheap foam cushion around them.
In fact, they sounded so bad when used as full range (which is what most people use them for) that we ended up putting them on a crossover so only Mid-high went through them. Just the voices on songs made them crackle and sound bad.
Just a few words of caution with these speakers.

If you want a challenge, try to find good reviews on these speakers by consumers and not people who are paid to review the product.
