Driver replacement worthwhile or not?

A friend of mine has a pair of Infinity SM 225s http://www.surroundsolutions.com/html/sm225.html

I took a look at them the other day and noticed that the tweeter has been pushed in and is all crumpled. I can see that the mid range has damage aswell. The woofer appears to be in good condition.

I looked around and provided I can find the right replacement tweets/mids I am wondering if it is even worth bothering replacing the drivers or would new speakers be the better course of action?

So far I haven't found all the required specs for replacing the drivers and Im not sure how well it would work with the current crossovers.

You should probably call Infinity for replacement parts. This drivers shouldn't be more then $20 each.
As to worthwhileness of this operation, is really up to you. If you like the speakers and you are on the tight budget, replace the drivers. If you aren't on the budget and looking to upgrade anyway, then perhaps it is time.
