I would go with some aftermarket speakers if you are using an aftermarket head unit. If you are running an OEM head unit, might as well hang with the OEM speakers. I am sure some other people will chime in with their opinions, but to me, you really don't reap the benefits of aftermarket speakers until you have an aftermarket head unit.

If you mean mid in the door and tweeter mounted seperately somewhere else,I would go that route.

I personally went with a kicker component system, i had the infinity sound system in it but one of the speakers was blown. Even though I did not have an aftermarket deck there was still a huge inprovement in overall sound quality.

Never use stock equipment. That includes speakers, Amps, Cd players, Ect. If you buy speakers before a nice head unit they arnt going to sound as good as they can. The only difference a componet system will give you is beter image quallity and beter highs due to the fact that the tweeter is up by your ears and not by your feet. They dont nessicarlily sound beter, but im most cases they do. It all depends on the aplication and whats driving them. Either way i wouldnt use your stock equipment.
