These are my rear speakers that I currently have.http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_6992.html
I dont know too much about speakers (power) so is would 180w max be really hard to reach? I have my bass at -2 on my deck, but I open my trunk and theyre flexing pretty hard. I just dont want to burn them out or blow them. How hard would I have to push them in order for them to get fucked up?

If you have them on a aftermarket HU, dont worry about it. Just make sure the bass or treble arent cranked and the speakers will be perfectly fine.

Do you have a sub in your trunk?

Yes, two 12" Magnums at 500wRMS. And yes swimmerdude, its an aftermarket pioneer premier

The pressure from the subs can be making the rear speakers move more than they are from the song you are playing.

well still, is 180w hard to hit for rear speakers?

No, with the speakers hooked up to an amp, it will not be hard to push 180w to them. On the other hand, it would not be recommened to do so because you run a big risk of blowing the speakers if you do that.
