+1 on either lowering your pressure with tubeless or stick to tubes.
with rim tape, valves and sealant you can use almost ant tire rim combo. In fact it is quite likely with a compressor your current tires and rims you could try it for a low cost.
the more the tire stays connected to the ground the more speed you will have. This is achieved off road by lower pressures. this advice is pretty consistent and possibly you should rethink your position and at least try it. Guy in our group used to do the same thing. He changed his mind and is running lower pressures now after trying it. If you are on a paved road this advice would change and suggest slicks at higher pressure.
