Pending that they good sizes, I like the Nos' between those two. However niether are what I would normally go for...

What diameter, width & offset are you considering?

Hmm, Work knockoffs anyone? Venom = VS-XX and Nos = Meister S2R...

Given good sizes and offset, I'd choose the Venom. Nos styling is cool, but is much more difficult to pull off. With all that space between the spokes, there better be a sweet brake kit back there to show off.

Wow, they have a complete lack of decent offsets.

Unless you plan on running some fat spacers, you are going to have some sunken wheels.

those are both junk, bad sizing, honda offsets, and the "lip" on them is just a thin, tin like, chrome overay that will dent and scratch when you mount a tire on it, we only ordered 1 set at the shop i used to work at, and that was for a replacement on a VW golf that already had them, after that 3 day ordeal (we bent the lip on 3 wheels out of 4 with a brand new hunter tulip mount machine) we wouldnt sell them any more, check out http://www.RBwheels.com good stuff

18x9.5 +35 seems ok but everything else will be somewhat sunken in.

Your budget is a pretty important factor... How much are you hoping to spend?
