My way of working on CentOS 7.4 is as follows:
I download the CUDA 9 standalone installer (not an rpm package).
This installer lets me choose to install only the CUDA SDK and Examples and
not the provided driver.
I always keep the elrepo nVIDIA driver.
This way there are no conflicts.
Hope this helps...
