Question New Speakers Question

So my stereo was stolen the other week and I bought a new one (Sony CDX-GT300). I had a brilliant idea in the process. I had a spare Bose Theater System laying around and I decided to take the speakers out of their cases and use them in my car because my current speakers S.U.C.K. So I have four more speakers and a sub. The way the sub works (or will work?) is if I go from the stereo in my car to the sub and then to the speakers. Yeah, it's awkward because of the whole used-to-be home system situation. My problem is I now have 8 speakers and the stereo only has wires for 4 speakers, two front, two back (is this standard? it's the same as my last two stereos). Would I be able to direct all cables to the sub, but then split the wires coming out so each designated slot on the sub has two speakers? It's really hard to word so I drew a picture ^_^. Here's a link: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/820/carmap.jpg/. Am I able to split wires like that? What would happen? Thanks for looking!

EDIT: I forgot to say that there are separate places for each speaker coming into the sub, so im not plugging all the cables in one port. Each four pairs of cables (black/red) will go to it's own slot, then coming out I want to split each so instead of going to one speaker after the sub, it will go to two. Also, each line in the diagram acts as a pair (black/red). Thanks again!
