I have the OEM on my 17 Sport Touring and really like their look. My only complaint is I'm using low profile tires and if I scrape a curb while parking it removes the black paint, leaving a silver "gash" in that area.

Sorry, guess I should have said I would need to see them on the actual car. Color of the car, trim color and things like that are always a factor to me. But that's just me.

Not a huge fan of either wheel but I'd go with the Accord ones.

The only reason I'd do those is because they come with Michelin tires and might be a stronger wheel

Nice.... are those current generation wheels?
Someone near me is selling a set of 2015 18” Accord Touring wheels & tires fairly cheap, but they need refinishing from winter salt damage.
