Mixed subs, old with new

[stevenslrp 10+ year member]

I have a sub proformance question and concern. Im planning on adding 3 subs to my new vehilcle, I've got two already that I have in my old car, but they are soon to be tooken out and put in my truck.

So thats kind of my question.

Is it safe to take my old subs and add them with my new addional one? All the the subs are the exact same. all 4ohm DVC 12s CVR Kickers.

Yes it's safe just do a proper break in on the new sub

As long as you rewire everything correctly so that adding the 3rd sub doesn't cause you to run a load lower than your amp can handle and end up damaging it.

as long as all the mechanical values on the subs are the same, should be good.
