Hey I have a 99 camaro without the monsoon system. I'm gonna be replacing the factory speakers real soon. Does anyone know a website or what the sizes of the speakers in the front and rear are in my camaro? Thanks.

alright thanks..and one more question? ive been looking around and saw some stuff about needing speakers with an impedence of 2 ohms. I'm new to car audio and don't know too much about it. Can I only buy speakers with 2 ohms for my car? Most of the ones I've looked at are 4 ohms. I have the factory stereo in right now but will be putting in a head unit soon if that information helps at all. Thanks.

The mid-woofers are oversized 6-1/2" speakers also known as 6-3/4" speakers.

There are very few manufacturers that make 2ohm speakers that aren't subwoofers. You can replace the factory speakers with 4ohm speakers without any problem. The new speakers just won't get as much power as the 2ohm factory speakers. The lower the impedance the higher the current flow. More current flow equals more power. There is however a limit as to how low the impedance can go before the amp that is driving the speakers goes into protection mode so that it doesn't burn itself up trying to produce more current than it is capable of.
