Cheap tires + Speed = Blown tire
Last year around this time I posted how everybody on the highway whether car or truck and trailer were blowing by me and I passed maybe 2 people over several hours on the road with my cruise set at 67...

You wouldn’t think so, but looking at my throttle position parameters on the tablet throttle opening and engine load are approx. 12% less at 75 as opposed to 65!
So you go faster with less throttle? How do you slow down?
Just trying to be funny, but your math doesn't take into consideration that the engine is taking 16% more gulps per minute. It also doesn't take into consideration that the fuel air ratio might be different to provide the needed horsepower to maintain the higher speed.
All I am trying to say is that it takes more power to push thru the air as speed increases. It takes fuel to make that horsepower and higher torque (which is just higher cylinder pressure from an increase of air and fuel).
