Hey Trucky,
If you intend to run a sub then don't worry about the rear speakers. Get a 2 channel amp to power the fronts. Get an amp that puts out more than what you need . Less strain on the amp than pushing it to it's max output all the time. Then get a mono for the sub. This will sound way better than running front, rears, and a sub. Otherwise the soundstage will be screwed up. If you are very budget minded look at Profile California series amps. Inexpensive but do rated power. I have a AP600 for my comps and an AP700M for the sub. Had them for a year and no problems.
Good luck,

Pepperhead

Well trucky, keep in mind you can run your rears off the head unit too. Especially if you have better speakers in the front than the rear.
