I wouldn't run coaxials in the back but that's just me. Rear fill should be mids only, if you add in tweeters it messes up all your staging

Should be fine then. If you don't already have those mids I wouldn't buy them simply because rear fill really isn't that important and those mids (assuming I'm thinking of the right ones) aren't on the cheap side.

you're losing your left/right balance???

you're doing it wrong. combine front left and rear left on one channel, and front right and rear right on the other channel.

you want to maintain your balance and lose your fader.

So what frequency should I run my rear fill at or should I just eliminate the rear all together? I buy DD. @ dealer cost so they're not that bad on $ but if it's pointless to run them I'll save the money and upgrade elsewhere

Do you like to rock out to AM talk radio? Your 'stereo' will not have 'stereo' if you wire things that way unless you have a barber's chair for a driver's seat and drive while looking over your left shoulder. It'll probably sound terrible and you'll get a sore neck. Not good...
