Almost any aftermarket speakers these days are going to sound better than the base OEM. I believe the fronts are 5.25 or 6.5 and not 4x6? My last venture in the audio was with CDT Audio.
CDT MX-6CV 6.5" Components
CDT HD 690CDX 6x9
Now this with coupled with a slew of other upgrades(1/0 wiring, 4 channel amp, and a sub stage with their own amp, high output alternator). I don't know how well the OEM headunit could push these speakers. Do you plan to upgrade the headunit at least as well.

Second that, 5.25" - 6.75" for the front doors.

I put in some Rockford Fosgate speakers. Nothing that'll blow your socks off, but my stock speakers were pretty much blown so they definitely sound much better. The front's came with a tweeter too, so that was nice. Pretty easy install. Front will take more time, you need to take the whole panel off the door and then the lower trim. Fitting in the tweeter was probably the most time consuming. You'll get the backs in through the trunk in about 3 mins haha. As was said, you might want to throw in a new h/u too.

Thanks, was thinking a set of Rockford Fosgates with separate tweeters I had seen, but was getting bad info from the "Pro's". Figured I'd come here to get the right info. Not looking for big boost in sound just want to clean up what's there..Put a system in my wife's car which we use to travel, but the Aurora is mine to run around in..

Just installed some speaker upgrades in my wife's truck this spring. Got a set of Polk Audio speakers for the doors and added an mtx proform sub with build in amp. The sound is so much better, but didn't break the bank!
