The impedance of them all may be 4 ohms, but how they're operating in our cars depends on how they're wired. I'm sure that the OEM door speakers were wired to run at 2 ohms, powered by the amp in the trunk. I *thought* that the other six speakers were running at 4 ohms, but there seems to be some conflicting information about this. If, as some have speculated, the 4-ohm dash tweeters and mids are wired in parallel, then they would be running at 2 ohms, too.

The rears may be running at 4 ohms, but take that with a grain of salt.

Bottom line: They're probably 4-ohm speakers, just wired in a certain way to drop them to 2 ohms. See this thread for more details: https://www.ft86club.com/forums/show...aker+impedance
