Voltage is pressure. So you are kind of asking why a tire rated for 40 PSI blew when you put 75 PSI in it. Thats why.

Well i was looking at it more like a 200 psi tire and it ran fine with 20 psi but not 50 when it is rated for 200. I guessed that the voltage had something to do with it but was not sure how.

In this analogy, the bulb is the tire....
