What gauge/size wire do you guys recommend for some aux. 5x7's that'll be amped up? I'm getting into audio and learning as I go so thanks.

You should be okay with 16 gauge wire, you're not running a ton of power to those speakers (i assume). That should be plenty, anything bigger than that is normally used for high-end stuff that requires more power.

Good rule of thumb for basic upgrades:

12 Gauge- 150w- Plus
14 Gauge- 100-150w
16 Gauge- 50-100w
18 Gauge- 20-50w
22 Gauge- 5-20w

Hope this helps
