tough as old boots. I have them on my commutor and they take a long time to wear down. you'll manage it you do alot of miles but it will take you a while as well. Grippy as well and pretty puncture resistant. The punctures I have had in mine (two I think) have both self sealed. Dont use stans hippy, use orange seal or effetto mariposa. Stans cant seal punctures beyond about 50 psi.
90 psi is more than enough for a big tubeless tyre. try 70 psi. I run my 28mm IRC's as low as 50 psi and they feel fine. rode at 30 -40 psi due a puncture that sealed but I then could not be bothered pumping the tyre up till I got home 200 miles later. It was fine and reinflated to 80 psi without bother.
