If you were going to run 2 sets of components you could install both sets of tweets up front and put one set of 6.75s in the front doors and one in the rear. Just wire the second set of tweets in the front to the rear component set cross overs. Then they will all be getting equal power.

When you says 2 sets? You mean 1 6-3/4 in each door?? Sorry :(

Cause I only need 2 6 3/4' speakers ( one in each door) and the rear are a weird size coaxial

If you think I will be ok with just 2 tweets I might do that cause the second set was almost 100$ ( second set of tweets )

Ok now your making more sense. I was having a tough time following you. You are just replacing the front door speakers with a 6.75" component set, right? And you have a 4 ch amp and you want to power just the front speakers with it?

I have 1 6 3/4' speakers in each door up front and a tweet all stock ( 2 door Tahoe)

And 2 4x10 in the back mounted above the rear cab

Wondering if I can run the 2 front door speakers plus tweets and the 2 rear speakers off a 4 channel amp ( 4 coaxial speakers and 2 tweets)

​I get it. Yes you can run the component set in the front and the coax in the rear off a 4 channel amp. If you wanted you could run a second set of tweets off the front set of components if you would like.

​My system right now I have a component set in the front with a 6.5 woofer and two sets of tweeters with a passive crossover. I am only using 2 channels of my 4 channel amp right now. The only reason I am using 2 channels and not bridging the 4 channels is that my front set are 2ohms and my amp isn't rated for bridged at 2 ohms only 4 ohms. So my new component set I have are 4 ohms so I can bridge that set to use all 4 channels. You will need to do some research if you are considering that.

All the speakers, up front and back are 4ohm impendence.

I have not chosen an amp yet for my lack of understanding ( I assumed 4 channel)

And I understand when you "bridge" your putting more than one wire/speaker in one terminal of you amp

Ohms law does confuse me still with multiple speakers

Bridging an amp means you are turing 4 channels into two. The power you get to your speakers will be more. So you have 4 channels 1 and 2 are the front and 3 and 4 are rear. You take say the left side of the front set and put the - lead in channel 1's - and the + lead in channel 2's +. Then the right side of the front do the same to channels 3 and 4.

Ohms is just the resistance of the speaker coil. The higher the number the less it will pull from the amp. The lower the number the more power it will pull.

Try to find a set a speakers that has the same RMS power rating as the amp you are going to run at the same OHMS. So if you buy a component set that is rated for 100w RMS and they are 4 ohms you should find an amp that puts out close to the same power @ 4 ohms. If you buy a 2 ohm set of speakers you need to look at what kind of power the amp puts out @ 2 ohms.

And what about the tweets? The left side ( 6 3/4 ) will have the left side tweet hooked up in the same terminals on the amp?

Component sets have a passive cross over. You would wire the tweets to the cross over and the woofer to the crossover. Then you will wire that to the amp.

Its really not that hard just sounds hard.
