I will second RoadFan's experience, at least I have had much better luck with the YJ tires than Giros or even Rallyes.
Giros are junk, most failed at modest pressure.
Both ride quality and appearance of the YJ's also was better imo.
I have less experience with better tubulars, but the sluggish tubeless S22 Tufos were at least VERY durable, slow to age and slow to wear.
