Ditch the 8's or use a seperate amplifier for them, with a xover set higher then the 18. You should go with the 18 for bass. Not good to mix different size subs, never mix different size subs off of the same amp without a crossover for both sizes and never ever share airspace.
As for box, personally I like sealed.

If you have a seperate amp then you are set. If you are using 1 amp then you need seperate xovers.

The 8's need to be used for mid-bass....not sub-bass.....!
