04 Corolla Mids and highs

I just bought a pair of SoundQubed QP-MR6.5 speakers powered by my Taramps DS440x4. My 6x9s blew when I got the amp because I tried to tune the same way I do with mono amps but didnt disconnect everything else. I want to put 2 of these speakers and a tweeter on each door. My current vision is speaker pods with each a pair of the SQ mids and 1 skar vx-175 or 200 tweeter. They are the same price I just dont know which one to pick. With just the 2 mids and stock tweeters which have likely died already were heard by a friend's dad 450m away with the cover of trees and a few houses. (distance found with an app to measure straightline distance from where my car was to his house. I dont want extremely loud hear damaging mids and highs but I do want mids that you can feel. Decaf civic has 4 mids in each door and I could feel the vocals in my chest, but it didnt hurt my ears. It was balanced nicely and I could listen to that system all day long. I am about to buy tweeters for my front door but I am torn between the VX-175 and the 200's. I am going to mount the front ones in the door panel just below the existing sail tweeter if possible and route the wires to the new tweeter. Should I get the 175s or 200s? I dont know if bigger will become difficult to install, or if I should get door pods with 1" tweeter holes and put skar VX-1 in it. Im looking for decently loud high fidelity music. So far the mids are super loud and sound decent. If i give some of the power to the high frequencies, I'm sure it will sound very good.

looking for fidelity, I’d go smaller over larger and more quantity. I’d go with the skar setup.
