Rear speakers, could you put small subs..... Options

[Symbiote5S-FE]

Has anybody tried to put 8" subs where the rear speakers are at in a hatchback and if someone has tried it how does it sound like? is it a good sound, an excelent sound, or im better off with the subs in a box. or what other mods could i do to for the sound system? Please help

I want to double check on the stock speaker sizes. I have the 8 speaker package and from what I can see, it's 6 1/2" in the rear, 8" front bottom, 4" front mid and 3/4" tweet front top?

I was a bit disappointed when I gutted my old car and found that none of my speakers from it will fit in this. My 6x9's are a no go, my 5 1/4 components will require making brackets, the 1 1/4" tweets are too big, my sub box is too wide and thick.

Looks like I get to play around in the coming weeks.

As for the too much bass comment? To each their own. I'm an audiophile and i want my car to sound good with full, rich sounds. I've already been through 8 subs and about 7 amps and many thousands of dollars just to get my car to sound great and I intend to keep doing it. If your car rattles that much, you didn't spend the time on your install that you should have. There's a ton of products for sound deadening a car. it just takes time.

Some people want speed, some looks and some sound.
