Which Speakers ??

Hello people
I need a little advice. I have a set of Polk Monitor 40's and A pair of RTi38 CS175 center. Currently, I use the RTi38's as my front channels and they sound awesome. I want to replace my rears (RT40's) with a speaker that I can mount on the wall. Should I keep the RTi's up front and use the Monitor 40's as rear surround or should I put the 40's up front. I haven't connected the 40's yet, so I really don't know how they sound.
Second question, after that is done, which speakers should I use as a rear channel (7.1 system). I was thinking of Monitor 30's or R15's.
Thanks

Recap
Receiver- Harman Kardon AVR335
Font Channel- Polk RTi38
Surround- Polk RT40 (tower with dual 5 1/4 drivers)
Sub- Acoustic Research 212?? (I know...but I got it on sale...it sounds pretty good)

Keep the 40's as rears as they are not called upon nearly as much as your fronts and would be fine. If you could find some Rti28's they would be a match to your fronts, or Rti4's or probably the best bet would be Fxi3.. I have a simillar sitch and I'm debating the same and maybe going in ceiling with TCi60's or 80's. I found a site that has great prices on Polk stuff too. Maybe try reposting this in the speaker forum. People there can really help you out.. Especially with 7.1 info..
