Hard to find a superstrut coilover 
K-Sport didn't produce one, nor BC. The only coilover made for superstrut is by Tein and it's discontinued

Can you get away with 18x8's without having to worry about rolling fenders?

I asked because, a local tire shop was telling me that there is no way I can fit 18x8's without having severe rubbing issues in the back, and would have to roll them.

^You can fit 10" wide wheels if you wanted to, but what really matters is the offset.
I don't know if you are lowered or not, but hypothetically speaking if you are on coilovers like alot of us are, with an 18x8 setup, the lowest offset you want to run is around +15 without stretched tires and/or little to no negative camber. At that point, you don't rub on a steady ride, but you do while going over bumps and doing harsh turns (assuming you are low enough). Anything more aggressive than that and you will have to look into stretching tires and giving yourself a bit more negative camber.
I'm basing this off personal experience

I'm not lowered, it's all stock. So which offset should I be looking at?

You should really look into lowering the car before getting rims. 18's will raise up the car even more and you'll be so high that Snoop Dogg would be jealous.
But if you are completely stock, offset shouldn't be an issue because the tires will be so far away from the fender that it would be hard to rub or bottom out unless you drive off the roof of your house. But, the lower the offset, the better

I have some 17" Core Racing Drifts on it right now, and they look to ricey for me.
I was looking at some Tanabe coil overs, but was thinking of doing that after rims :P, was going to put in a Hotchkis sway bar, and some Megan ties at the same time for shits and giggles.
Oh and I'm assuming that's your car in your signature, if so what are those rims? Love them.

Not going to lie, I'm not a big fan, but it'll definitely look better when you lower it.

This really isn't the thread for that question. Try the Widest Wheels thread.

You will definitely clear the fenders in the rear once rolled, but will still be pretty close in the front depending on your camber settings and tire width.
