. . . because of prolonged speeds over 130kph, mileage, and tire longevity (I always wear out the outsides of the tire first and over-inflation gives we even wear).

Over inflating does not give you even wear.

Well, if you are heavy in your cornering, you will get heavy sidewall deflection (especially in a 60 series tire), thus wearing out the corners faster. Over-inflation minimizes this and CAN (in some instances) result in more even tire wear.
