Well it will be fine but it depends on what load that vibe box shows
Amp ratings.
Rated Power @ 4 ohm: 275 x 1
Rated Power @ 2 ohm: 400 x 1
Rated Power @ 1 ohm: 600 x 1
So it will be seriously underpowered if it shows less than a 1 ohm load, which i suspect it will. I think it'l be 2 ohm showing 400w RMS but you cant tell from that site as it doesnt list a load for it.
also y choose vibe subs?......

Well i personally dont like vibe think there a bit towny (no insult intended).
Depends wat sort of sound u like i guess, but that amp running 2 x JL W3V2 - D4's wud be mint IMO, showing the amp a 1 ohm load.

I can definately go with the 2 JL's recommendation
Failing that, look for a meatier amp for the existing box, 'cause I don't think that one is really up to the job.

the subs will work best with an amp that a higer RMS rating than they do,
you are more likely to damage speakers by maxing out a lower power amp that cant really drive them properly.
