I find the Acceleras are a fair bit louder than their rating implies. Grip and wet performance is directly proportional to price although some members on here do like them.
The Eagle F1 Asym 3 is a terrible tyre. Its noisy, squirmy, bouncy, and ugly to look at. I have a set which I replaced after only a few thousand miles because they were so awful to drive on. Its such a shame because the Asym 2 was superb in every way the 3 is bad. Much as I dislike the Acceleras, I'd choose those over the Asym 3 if they were the only two options. Luckily they aren't!
Dropping wheel size with the same width tyre won't make a lot of difference - its the footprint of the tyre on the road that makes most of the noise.
Welcome btw
