The woofer surrounds on those are usually rubberized, should last a long time, as long as the speaker cones don't absorb the moisture.
Tha best "real" outdoor speakers I have heard are the Bozak Bards. Meant to be floor standing, the barrel looking speakers use a little metal coned, flat faced 8 incher, but do sound full range. Its' aluminum cone is quite fast in transient response, too.
Maybe, since you have decided to "sacrifice" the Dynas, you might want to lightly coat the cones with rubber cement. That stuff is very flexible and never hardens. It should add years, or at least months, to your outdoor "test."
