16.5/17cm but watch out for the magnet sizes.
You'll also need the Autoleads speaker adaptors, or you can make a spacer ring to do the same job.

That depends if you are gunna modify your door pocket or not. Ive got 6.5'' speakers in mine and they sound wicked mate, you dont really need anymor than that. Just make sure theres more sound in the front than the back.

This is the thing! If the speaker magnets are fairly chunky they wont fit through the hole in the door, leaving you to either cut some of the metal away :S or get door builds

Buy the 6.5'' speakers and get a pro to fit them, he will put spacers in so your window will go down, dont ask me how cos i dont have a fucking clue!!

If your gonna get the Autoleads ones then get aAstra ones as they'll allow a deeper speaker but really you have'nt got alot of space. Another thing worth concidering is sound deadening round the pod coz they're pretty flimsey
I had 5 1/4 JLs that were too deep so i had to make fibre glass door builds in stead

Oh Nah you can get 6 1/2s in pretty easily aslong as they're not too deep,
The JLs i had were as deep as they were wide
