This is for a Civic HX? What year? (Or is it for HX wheels on a GS-R?)

It also depends on how you use the car, and what your priorities are. For example, you say this is for daily driving, but you mention the Azenis RT-615. The Azenis RT-615 is a supersticky tire on dry pavement, but it's not all that great in rain, and it wears rapidly; because of those downsides, it's not usually the best choice for daily driving. However, if you don't mind buying new tires frequently and you don't get a lot of rain where you live, they might be a good choice for you. So what are you looking for? All-out dry performance, period? Do you care about rain performance? What about value (purchase price and treadlife)? Tell us what you care about the most, and we can recommend a good choice for your needs.

BTW, BFG makes a lot of different tires with the g-force name...

The BFG G Force Drag Radials will not last on the street.

If you can handle buying tires more frequently and do not have frequent rain like nsxtacy mentioned, then maybe you should stick with the Azenis for daily driving.

If the Azenis are not as sticky as you would like at the track, then maybe getting a set of two wheels and mounting the BFG Drag Radials on them, would be your best bet.

If you're considering getting another two (or four) wheels, another option is to get something that lasts a lot longer than the Azenis for your daily driving (the Kumho Ecsta SPT and Yokohama ES100 are excellent for value and performance), and then get two (or four) drag radials for the dragstrip.
