Should I do a speaker swap? front to rear?

I just finished installing 5 TC615i speakers for our new HT setup. They were such a good price at the time that I could not resist. So basically the TC615i's are for the left, right, center, and L/R surround (All in-wall), and I already had a sub. At the time my wife would not let me buy anything else, so I decided to wait a few months for the rear surround speakers for the ceiling.
As I so often do, I start doing my research here for the rear surrounds (TC60i/TC80i), and all of the sudden I want to redo the whole dang thing! (This is why my wife does not like me on the internet
Well, I have convinced myself that I might be able to move the front left/right TC615i's to the rear surround and purchase something a little better for the front, like the TC65i's. I might only be spending a little more than getting the new front 65's vs. the new rear 60's/80's. Does anyone think this effort would be worth it, or should I just leave well enough alone?

Leave it alone, as it sounds like a fantastic setup already. Don't overthink it or you'll be chasing your tail from now on.
CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint. -

Thanks everyone,
I am at peace now... I am just going to pick up some 60's for the rear and enjoy what I have.
