Default Which wires to buy?....Opinions wanted please

I need some spark plug wires for my 92 civic. I had a valve cover leak and now I dont want to use the same wires, because they are old, and dirty with oil from the chambers leaking oil. I have already changed the grommets and etc, and the spark plugs with NGK's, but I dont want to spend alot of money on wires if I dont need it. Car is completely stock, with around 95k original miles.

What would you buy and why?

Or would you buy elsewhere?

Usually, it's a good bet to just buy the ngk wires, but I recently purchased a set of Accel 300+ ThunderSport Ferro-Spiral wires for $23.00. I was looking for a set of yellow wires, and it came down to Neuspeed or the Accel's. The price was too good to pass up.

Buy the OEM wires from a place like www.bkhondaparts.com or using any of the OEM resources at http://honda.lioness.googlepages.com...epairresources.

The OEM wires treat the rest of your ignition system well and pay for themselves.

Okay it seems like NGK wires are the best way to go, but what is the main different between those and the cheap knock offs? I know oem is always best I just figured I could save a buck or two.
