I dunno why you are trying. Your mp3 setting WILL be worse quality than the presets (-V0 to -V9).
The presets are created by people who actually know how mp3 works internally (that is not you or me) and tested numerous times by people with good hearing and ability to recognize of mp3 artifacts.
Mp3 encoding is all about trade-offs. You can't have both perfect quality AND a low average bitrate. You have to find some compromise between quality and bitrate (+ the many other settings). The lame developers already did that for each bitrate range with the presets.
If you want low bitrate than you should just use -V4 or whatever.
Btw. All vbr presets already use 32kbps for pure silence.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
