What are your goals? What do you have enough? What do you listen to? What are the short comings of your current system? If you were a fish, what kind if fish would you be? All except for the last one are important to answering your question.

Your not going to get any kind of sub system for 250$.... Just Wiring could cost that much.

My door speakers are crap, so basically what door speakers are best for that money. My speakers just vibrate in heavy parts of a song. I listen mostly to classic rock and contemporary christian music. And definetly a shark lol

Wiring has already been done, the system was removed by the owner. It doesn't have to sound amazing, just that's what I can do.

Do you currently have the Mach, Mach 1000, or none of the above system? If you are running an after market head unit, what kind is it and any specs or model number would help.

I know this seems really annoying but speakers run different specs. Knowing what you have lets me recommend something closer in need and budget.

Are you planning on adding a sub or amps later?

Sharks are the scariest fish out there.

This would be close to your budget. You would need an amp kit. This is a basic set up that is very best bank for your buck. It has limited to no growth potential but will give you good sound. If you are not looking to expand later, it's pretty decent.

Now, I know basically nothing about cars and stuff, but there are 4 speakers in my car correct? And if so, does that mean I should get 4 of those same speakers?

For your budget, that would put you over. If you fade the speakers forward, the rear speakers will only be filler audio wise. It isn't a bad idea to match all the speakers. I was trying to find a relatively inexpensive solution to your problem. If you up your budget or want future upgradability, I would select different equipment. If your option is to keep the rears or buy the sub, the sub will have a better impact on sound.

Still, Any sub system will cost a lot more than that. An amp just to power 2 10" woofers will cost you 200$ and then you have the woofer price which would be at least 100$ a piece, box, and capacitor.
