Pioneer TS-A1680R -- Any Good? (Pic Inside)

I found these in my parent's garage and was wondering if they would sound better than my factory speakers (06' TSX w/Navi). I like to play my music loud on long roadtrips and I feel that sometimes I'm almost pushing my factory speakers to the limit Some input would be greatly appreciated.

Specs:
Max Music Power 220W
Nominal Power 50W
Woofer 6.5"
Midrange 1 5/8" Dome
Tweeter 5/8" Dome
Super Tweeter 3/8" Dome
Impedance 4 Ohms
Sensitivity 1dB/W (1m)
Frequency Response 30-30,000Hz
Gross Weight 2.30kg 5lb 1oz

I recognize that I may not be seen as an objective commentator, but I don't think these are an improvement.

A change... you should have even more bright, harsh highs - but not an improvement.

They're "GM" compatible frames. They probably won't go in a TSX without cutting metal even WITH a spacer ring.

Hm. They have user reviews of the speakers they sell (none on these), and many of those in my experience are written by marketing droids at the manufacturer.
