10 ohm vs 4 ohm

I need to replace the 6x9 speakers on my 82 Z28. I have the stock Extended Range stereo. I'm not looking for a super stereo. I just want to get it back to something close to original. The speakers I removed from the car are labeled 10 ohm. All of the aftermarket speakers I've found are 4 ohm. Is it ok to use the aftermaket 4 ohm speakers on my system?
Thanks,
Ken
82 Z28, LU5 still alive

Yes it will, there will just be less resistance (what "oms" are) and so you will get more sound for less power.
