Default What Size Coaxial.......

should I go with in the rear. Right now I'm looking at the JL XR-650CS in the fronts. There is a chance I may go with the Focal 165W, if so then what should I put in the rear. I plan the hear the Focal 1st before shelling out the big bucks. It has to really knock my off my feet to do it. Thanks, Forgot to add that I'll be using a JL-500/5 amp. If I don't change the rears, could they handle the 25 watts coming from the amp?

No rear speakers with any decent front component set.

btw get your focal from http://www.thezeb.com

If you get the focal it is IMPERATIVE that the tweeter is within a few inches of the mid. Focal tweets are VERY VERY loud and suffer greatly from seperation if yuo mount them far apart.
