I am just a newbie in setting up car audio so pls. help me out.
any answers will be highly appeciated.
thanks in advance.

according to the link, you need an enclosure for the 10” sub of about 1 to 1.5 cu.ft., so a little over 1′x1′x1′ to 1.5′x1′x1′ to accomodate the driver.
For the tweeters, i would just mount them on a solid surface without an enclosure.

    well tweeter don’t need a box.
    you didn’t give speaker characteristics. the model number would have helped.
    one or two woofer?
    Single or dual voice coil?
    Sealed, ported or bandpass?
    Well since your a noob stick to sealed
    width: 14-1/2"
    height: 12"
    bottom depth: 12-3/8"
    top depth: 9-3/4"
    this is the size for 1 sealed 10" woofer
