What driver?
To the OP, running a system like that is very.... newbish... I bet it "bumps" - but guarentee it sounds like total ***. You should not run different subs together. I would just hook up the set of subs that sounded the best, and call it good - save or sell the other set.
If you want to run 4 10's, do it the right way with all the same 10's all getting the same power, and all in the same enclosures. I would just hook up the 2 Candence subs, and call it good.

Nothing but I about bet I could out do everyone on this forum $ for $ in spl. I was hitting 144's with a $500 system on the TL mics but still having the ability to go deep into the 20hz range all the way up to 70hz with prestine sound quality.

20hz 126db's
25hz 138db's
30hz 143db's
35hz 141db's
40hz 138db's
45hz 136db's
50hz 134db's
I can keep going , it was pretty flat and I was running seas lotus mid range and highs. H.O. alt, "big 3" was done, optima under the hood and trunk with a JBL 1200.1 and 2 xtant amps for the highs. I have had louder but in bigger cars. Also i was running a 12W7 in a 2.0 cu ft ported box tuned to 28hz(explains the spike at 32hz which was 144db's)
Like i said i have had louder, way more complex systems back when I drove Caddy's, Buicks, and Oldsmobils. I just grew out of it, now I make cars fast.

RE: 4 10s
here...well they didn't show up like i planned. dont feel like adding them to photobucket right now. but that's my old system. the sub and amp are no more. going to put something back in there some day, but have other priorities in life right now (60" LCD and kick *** home theater lol). but while it was in there it would rattle your kidneys loose.
where the 6x9s are actually touching the box

my amp rack. 1 amp for sub, 1 amp for each front and back pair of speakers, dry cell 2nd battery, 1 farad capacitor that was there for looks more than anything, an isolator, and a KX3 crossover to send the signals where they need to be

Not may companies still make 18's but they used to be pretty common back in the day.. Actually there was one company, I believe it was Clarion, that made a 32' sub as well. Talk about moving some air..
here is a link to some reviews of the 32' beast

RE: 4 10s
no there's not. kicker quit making them, except for the solo x. there's still a few companies that make them. but i dont know if i want another one, been there done that. they move lots of air, are a conversation piece, and will out rattle most anything. that one would actually rattle glasses on my face. it was fun pulling up beside someone who thought they were bumping, then turn it up and overpower them, then just turn it back down to a reasonable level.
next sub i'm gonna put in there is a 15" L7 with 1200-1500 RMS going to it, in the same ported box the 18" was in.
