That depends—do you want to sound British, or American? Add your R's to the second option, and you will have a perfect American accent.

I would say "ɑː jə taɪəd", "æ jə taɪəd" or "ə jə taɪəd", depending on how quickly I said it. I have northern England vowel sounds, and I think it could be pronounced quite differently in other parts of the world.
"ɑː juː taɪəd" sounds like you're emphasising the you - as if you're surprised by this or something.

ɑː jə taɪrəd

I don't know how to write it in that way, but I would say it's pronounced like Tie (as in 'necktie') + ould (as in 'could'). Put it into Google Translate to hear the audio - that's usually quite accurate, but it might come with an American accent.

"Tired" is pronounced with the long "i" sound.
Also, notice the intonation of my voice. When you ask a "yes/no" question, your voice will go up at the end. ⤴️
Let me know if you have any questions.
