Rear channel speaker question

I am in the beginning phases of an addition for a home theater.  I have begun to assemble some new items to go along with my existing A/V equipment.  My existing speakers are KEF KHT5005.2. I am adding two speakers to make it a 7.1 system.  I recently purchased a set of KEF Ci60.2FS in ceiling speakers for the rear channel.  Today I got a killer deal on a set of Proficient W670 in wall speakers.  I would rather use the in walls.  I am always reading how the speakers need to be matched and for fronts I would tend to agree but for rears I am not too sure.  Any suggestions?

Rule of thumb is the front three (left, right, center) should match, the rears can be different.  If you're going with 7.1 you might consider using the same for the sides and rears though.
