I purchased Pioneer speakers for my altima. I realized the factory speakers are 2 ohms and my aftermarket speakers are 4 ohms. Can I use these or will I need to return them for 2 ohms speakers. The factory radio will be used. any info will be greatly appreciated. thanks

They will work, but realize that doubling the resistance, drops the power output by the amp in half.

Last I knew, Infinity did make some 2ohm speakers. Check in on it and if you find some that will work for you, take back the ones you bought.
