What is real dimension W,H,D ?

The Polk Audio 265-RT is 20-7/8" H x 8-7/8" W and 3-3/4" D. The cutout dimensions would need to be 19-3/16" H x 7-1/4" W and the mounting depth is 3-1/4" using a 1/2" drywall.

Thinking of using this for the front left and right. What would be the best center speaker that will match the timbre? In wall or bookshelf.

I don't think you will tell any difference. I use the center A6 and it sounds great. I would get the matching in wall center. The bookshelf type are large. FYI. Book shelves so have more bass. Not that you need that from a center. My center is very large and has lots of low end. It needs to be turned down to match my in wall speakers.

Does this come with a back box enclosure ?

It does not. In typical installations, the wall you mount it in serves as the acoustic enclosure.

I need shallow speakers to replace what i have. Cant find anything appropriate. If i wanted to install these in a custom box what would be the size?

I spoke to a rep from Polk and they recommend building a custom cabinet that's 1.5 cubic feet. So, you're looking at a pretty big box. Though you could probably fudge the numbers a bit on the smaller end and it won't drastically impact the sound as long as you don't go too small. You may end up losing out on some bass, but a sub will help. Ex: 35" (h) x 10" (w) x 6" (d) = 1.2 cubic feet.
