Hi guys!! I have a wall that is not enclosed ie. drywall then studs no back dry wall (so the back of speakers will be exposed from behind). will these in wall speakers still work? thanks!

Technically yes they would but they are not self enclosed so most likely not sound to good.
Sound is subjective, some say these sound as good if not better than $400+ speakers!
Would these be reccomended for a in-ceiling 7.1 system? It would be 5 of the in-ceiling and two in-wall.
5 in ceiling would be a very strange setup. Generally you'd have two in/on the front wall as left and right and also a center speaker in/on the wall or on a media console below the TV. Then four speakers on the ceiling.

I have center, front r/l, back r/l all in ceiling. Then an additional left and right in the wall. Not saying it's not weird, but that's how it's wired.

These would work. If your receiver is in the front of the room, you could swap to a real center speaker in just a few minutes. If you have a media console with a TV you can just put a speaker on or in the center console. If you're using a projector just a few minutes with a fish rod and you could fish a wire into the wall cavity. If your receiver is in another room or part of the room it would be tricky. I'd still probably rather tuck a wire under the baseboard to get to the front wall than have a ceiling center speaker. That's probably the worst speaker to be placed incorrectly.
Hopefully you can work it out. These are a good deal and should work well for you.

Edit: Went to the site direct and clicked on the SALE tab and seems fine. Seems like something is wrong with the affiliate, redirect, etc.

Can anyone tell if these are for a pair? Or is it singles?
How are you seeing the 8ic on sale? Just checked and they are in the sale section but coming up full price
Edit: Nevermind. Saw they have a magnetic grill.
