Looking for shallow mount 12's

[Nesto1000 10+ year member]

I'm looking to replace my current 12" subs because I blew one. They weren't that good to begin with so I don't really care. Anyways I currently have an MB Quart Q1.1500D amp that pushes 400W RMS @ 4Ω, 850W RMS @ 2Ω, and 1500W RMS @ 1Ω. I want to run the subs at 2 Ω's so I'm looking for two subs that are roughly 400W-500W RMS a piece, but I want shallow mounts since they're going under the back seat in my dodge ram 1500. I could probably fit a non shallow mount but I don't want to risk it not fitting. The reason that I'm looking for 12's instead of 10's or something small is because I already have the box.

Alpine Type R's. They are pricey but I hear good things about the shallow R's.

if you have a box like this you have pretty good depth and can get any 12 basically

Thanks for the replies. I ended up getting some JVC DRVN's from a friend for $30 a piece. I'm pretty happy with them. I was scared that they weren't going to fit, but they did. Although I couldn't get them to fit straight for some reason and now the logo is sideways. I only got them because they were cheap and I felt weird with very little bump. I guess that next time I will look for some 12's that I want when I have the money.
