Default Stock speaker replacement

2010 ultra.
At the moment just want replace front fairing speakers.
What's some good choices in the 5.25 size?
Was looking at infinity 52.9.
Also can I look at 4 ohm or do I have to stick with 2?

You don't want 5.25 speakers in your fairing bro! You want 6.5's in there. All you need is speaker adapters and an amp. It does you no good to just change speakers.

Stock head unit? If so you have to stick with 2ohm unless you install an amp, which I highly recommend

I have a SoundStrem PN4.1000d amplifier. This is only a few months old. The right rear channel breaks up at high volume. But, it would drive the snot out of a decent pair of speakers from the good front channels.

PM me if you are interested, and I can make you a good deal.

Thanks for the input my brothers,
I understand the wise choice is an amp and larger speakers, it's just Im spending a few bucks on other toys, tuner, headers etc and can't be spending another wad on stereo upgrades. Just thought a better quality set of speakers even in the same size gotta be better than stock. I can live with stock for now, it is a want not a need really.
3geez thanks for the offer ,it is appreciated and I will drop you a line about the soundstream.
Thanks all again
I love my ride but it is a freakin sickness, not complaining tho
