A. not consistent......., instead...... - Incorrect parallelism + run-off sentence.
B. consistent not with....but with... - Correct parallelism + intended meaning is clearly conveyed
C. consistent with not....but with... - Incorrect parallelism because the stem "with" is repeated after but.
D. consistent not with....but.......... - Incorrect parallelism + run-off sentence
E. not consistent with.....,instead... - Incorrect parallelism + run-off sentence
Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
