Chadnliz,
When you say center backs, did you mean two rear channel speakers spread apart on the back wall? I hope they don't have the two speakers placed together at the center of the rear wall as rear speakers should be spaced about 150 degrees from the listening position (sides are at 90 deg). Reasons are avoiding possible back to front reversals, and spearding the rear surround information across the back. Rears are not intended to be a point source.
I have heard of arrangements like you mentioned when there was less than adequate space behind the listening area to properly place the rear speakers; e.g., listening position is a couch placed almost against the back wall. Unless the room layout has an unusual situation like that, I think you would be better off placing the rear speakers in a normal front facing direction (but spread apart).
