I'd naively think that when you're slipping the wheels you wouldn't have much of an effect from vehicle speed at all; in the reference frame of the wheel, the only thing vehicle speed does is decrease the effective rotational speed of the wheel (almost negligibly at those speeds, at that). It's not clear what effect that would actually have on the force generated by the wheel.
