Help Picking Speakers

Hey Folks, I'm a long time Polk Owner (RTA12's from 1980)! Still wonderful speakers, but I'm moving into the 21st century and need to do surround. This room is on a budget, and I'm thinking about rti4's for front R&L, but don't know what to use for center, rear surrounds and sub. Can someone give me some ideas as to good matches?
Thanks!
Thanks!

The rears will need to be mounted on the wall, up kinda high. Is it really important that I "match" the rears to the fronts and center or could the rears be another brand?

Put Rti6's up front, the 4's in the rear, and a Csi5 in the center. Lots of sub options depending on your budget.HT/2-channel Rig: Sony 50 LCD TV; Toshiba HD-A2 DVD player; Emotiva LMC-1 pre/pro; Rogue Audio M-120 monoblocks (modded); Placette RVC; Emotiva LPA-1 amp; Bada HD-22 tube CDP (modded); VMPS Tower II SE (fronts); DIY Clearwave Dynamic 4CC (center); Wharfedale Opus Tri-Surrounds (rear); and VMPS 215 sub

If you are going to put RTi's in the front then consider FXi's for surrounds ...
