I had the same reservations as you, but I can testify that my 18" blades on a Type S GT are no noisier than when I had 17" on my Megane.

I tested a GT with 17" and I really can't tell the difference, and I do a good mix of driving on motorways, A-Roads, crappy Glaswegian pot-holed streets.

The Megane was very noisy in the road department full stop, but I've had the Civic for about 4 weeks now, and I'm very happy.

Also, the ride is a lot better than I imagined it would be too. Again, it's better than the Megane on 17s.
