My advice is to remove the speakers, label them, and take them to your audio dealer before purchasing the replacements. You stock speakers are Alpine and are actually of very good quality. The small ones in the rear roof pillars are a bugger to get out and may require that you purchase a new set of retainers for the pillars cause they frequently break during removal. Also, be very careful removing the grilles from the rear passenger doors since it is common that you will bust off the centre-mount tweeters from the base cone assembly.
Unfortunately, if you want more bass than what is now in the car, just about any 5" to 6" won't give you much more than what you now have and your looking at upgrading you amp and putting in one of those very annoying "kickers".
