Tweeter replacement (8 ohms ----> 4 ohms)

Hi,
Just bought myself an old Platinum Studio 1. Sounds good, but one of the tweeter has some defect, someone put a hole into it. The original tweeter is an aluminum dome (8 ohms).
I read a lot of good things about the Vifa Ring Radiator Tweeter and I'm thinking of changing the original to the Vifa. But, my concern is that, the Vifa is a 4 ohms tweeter.
Question : Can I just replace it, one to one, and hear improvement? If not, what can I do to get some real improvement? Add in series, another 4 ohms resistor ??? ..please help!
