I've used 28 and 32mm Pasela TGs on my commuter/rando bike for a couple years and I will probably replace my Panaracer UrbanMax 32mm with another pair of TGs.

I was worried about the sidewall durability on them after hearing some stories, but I used them on rides like the 3 Volcanoes 300k, which has over 15 miles of loose, forest service gravel roads, including 7 miles up and 3 miles down on a mountain pass. Never had a single issue with them.
The tread and compound are the same on the UrbanMax, but it's a blackwall tire with a lower TPI and a wire bead, and the lower casing flexibility makes for a rougher ride at the same pressure. (and a slower ride if you go much lower on the psi)
