So I'm looking to replace all 4 of my speakers in my Celica. The front has some excruciatingly bright Pioneer 3-ways, the rear has stock speakers, although 1 of them is giving me weird noises. Can anyone recommend me some speakers that aren't going to be painfully bright? I'm on a budget, not looking to spend more than $300 on the whole set of 4 - I'm planning to pick up two 8" Kicker subs and an amp in the near future also. So if anyone has any advice, I'll be glad to hear it. My headunit is a Pioneer DEH-44HD, which I'm also open to upgrading.

Edited for spelling.

They may not be exactly what you're looking for but I have the following:

Pioneer Premier D720C 6.5" Woofer/ 1.75" Tweeter Component Set (Fronts) - http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_12224_...-TS-D1720C.html
Pioneer Premier D702P 6.5" 2-Way Set (Rears) - http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_22430_...-TS-D1702R.html

The ones I've linked are non-Premier but basically the same speakers. I've had them about 4 years this month and they're pretty decent without an amp and sub supporting them so I'd assume they'll be plenty with what you're planning.

Those look pretty promising (especially the reviews that say the tweeter isn't super bright like many others). Did you have to do any cutting/drilling to get them mounted?
