Need Help with replacing factory speakers

I have a 04 vibe with the moon & tunes package, and I am considering replacing the factory speakers. There is nothing wrong with the speakers, I just want to increase the quality and maybe get a little more bass, without buying a sub.So my first question is what speakers do you recommend. Secondly, what is the amount of power that the factory amp sends to each speaker and the ohms. Finnaly, will the new speakers, be able to conntect to the factory amp.

The factory speakers in M&T are 2 Ohms. I think it's very difficult to find aftermarket 2 Ohm speakers, and I'm not sure if it would be OK to use 4 Ohms with the factory amp.

If you go to the Crutchfield website, you can enter the moons and tunes package in their speaker search, and they'll show you all the speakers that will match your system.

It would WORK with 4 Olms, but woulnd't sound good, and you risk burning up your amp. It would have to work harder to push out the power to the speakers.

Well I went to Crutchfield and they have JBL's that are 2 ohms, but they have very few reviews. Does anyone know if these would be a good buy.
