Yes, 2500 cu in for the rear pair is really about the minimum for longer self-supported trips. There are certainly larger ones but not nec if you have some front pans and pack efficiently.. Also make sure they are really in the ballpark by doing the math, using the supplied dimensions, some manufacturers are pretty optimistic on their ratings.
