Your midrange frequencies start at 250hz, which is where I would recommend cutting them.
By the way, Woofersect has a set of Hertz 3 1/2"s for $99 FYI
The Polks come with 200hz base blockers and most reviews I have read have said the worked well.

In my 4Runner, I have 3.5" Kappas and went with a higher frequency blocker. In that vehicle, I have coaxials in the door, not components, and the 3.5s are in the dash. Sounds great to my pedestrian ear.
