Speaker Dilemma.

Well I was about to order 2 sets of these speakers. LINK. Until I found out that the depth is too big to fit in my door. On Crutchfield every speaker that comes up when I enter my car info, says 1-11/16", and those ones are 1-3/4" which is one 16th of an inch bigger. Will that make a difference? On Crutchfield these speakers say that they do not fit, but is there a way to make it fit? Any help is appreciated...

If I can't get these speakers ^^, would these be a great alternative? LINK. I'm looking for something on the lower price range but still packs a good punch with decent mids and lows. I have a Pro Equalizer on my headunit so I can adjust everything from Sub Bass to Super High (or something around that level). I just want a set of speakers that can play a good bass without distorting the highs and mids, I don't want that car pounding, heard across the block bass boom, or else I'd invest in a subwoofer and an amplifier.

Thanks everyone!!

Re: Speaker Dilemma.

They will both fit in your car

However, you may or may not need speaker brackets, I would highly suggest you buying some though.

Depending on where you live, I recommend Fry's Electronic's AutoTek ATX6.5C
I've listened to them in store, and for the price range of $40, they are up to par with some of the $200 speakers out there.
