OEM Spark plugs and Wires

Reading older posts on which plugs and wires to get everyone suggested OEM or NGK. So I picked up some wires and plugs from Parkway Honda and the plugs were NGK but the wires read Prestolite. I thought that OEM was NGK? Is Prestolite a good replacement?

Hmm should I just pick up some NGK blue wires then? Car is running fine without any problems. Has anyone ever heard of Prestolite?

Dealer shouldn't be selling parts not meeting OEM spec, so I wouldn't worry too much about brand name.
