Post proper size tyres for auto x

For auto crossing (solo II) what are good size tyres? i'm seeing the technodyne racing 944 and it has 18x14 rear wheels by 18x10.5 front wheels. are those only good for gran turismo style racing or so i thought. i had been under the impression that a smaller wheel such as 15" with r compound tyres was better for auto x. larger tyres and smaller rims are a lighter combo than lower profile tyres and huge rims so it seems a better choice for auto x to go with the smaller rims.

Some cars need to run larger wheels for brake clearance.
