Default Road King Audio Uprgade

Ok so long story short. Last year my buddy and I put 2 8" gz red baskets in dirty bird lowers, 2 8" gz yellow baskets in his lids with hertz st35 tweeters. They are powered by a SD 1200.4 4 ohm, with filters set with a DD dsi-2. I am adding an SD 250.2 amp to go to the tweeters so we can get better control of the tweeters. Each 8" will have its own channel on the SD 1200.4. My question is can I parallel bridge the yellow baskets together and the red baskets together or do you think I'm going to smoke these speakers putting that much power to them?

The bigger issue is paralleling the speakers makes for a 2 ohm load on a 4 ohm stable amp.
