You've got 4" speakers in the rear dude...I don't know what the fronts are though, so if you know let me know man!

it's a retarded size, 4.5" only a few aftermarket manufacturers make this size, polk audio was one of them i recall.. the speaker frame is also demented, got only 2 brackets, which are on opposing sides, so even if u get a 4.5" speaker with 4 brackets, it won't fit O_o

The rear (as others have mentioned) are an odd 4.x".
when i replaced mine in my old car (95 318is coupe) i removed the speaker and it's box, then made a mounting plate for a 6x9 and sealed it. the 6x9 is a good fit for the hole that the old speaker box will leave. i used the boot as a free baffle and the sound was very good for the money spent..
Another option would be something like this

or

(the second one is basicly what i did).

Yet another option is you could run a pair of 8" woofers there in stealth boxes like this
