When I ran in STS and eventually STX with my autocross-specific 1993 Civic, the hot tires were the Azenis due to their overall grip. If I were running in G Stock with your Si Sedan, I'd personally run the Kumho MX (or the new replacement due out soon) because the Kumho usually has better heat-resiliency properties compared to the Azenis... Especially on such an overworked and heavy front end like a stock Civic.

You'll still nedd to hose the Kumho's down between runs, but they won't get as greasy as quickly as the Azenis.
