Surround speakers: Better ones at rear or side?


I have two pairs of monitors I'm going to use in a home theater setup. One pair is far better sounding than the other. Which pair should be the rear surrounds and which the side surrounds?
The rears will be placed 8 ft behind the seat and near the ceiling. The sides will be just behind the seat, on the side wall.
Thanks,
Ben.

Better speakers up front ,rears don't  have to be as good.The mains will be needed to be well the main.The rears more sound effects .
