+1 fatter tires; simply better in every way. Or I can refer you to a good dentist. 125psi does increase risks of rim sidewall failure a little, but with regular inspection is not overly concerning. The failures I have seen were on over machined sidewalls on very lightweight rims like 90s era Mavic open-pro. Haven't seen one fail since the 90s either.
